Abstract

This badge is made of white metal (now rusted), and is round in shape, marking it as an example of the first badge pattern used by the Other Ranks of the 1st-4th Tyneside Scottish battalions. The badge depicts a lion standing on a castle tower and grasping a flag that bears a small St. Andrew's cross, flanked by leaves and thistles. Around the outside of the badge is the Northumberland Fusiliers' Latin motto, "QUO FATA VOCANT" ("Whither the Fates call" in English). Below the tower on a scroll is written, "TYNESIDE SCOTTISH". The 1st-4th Tyneside Scottish battalions were locally-recruited battalions that formed the 102nd (Tyneside Scottish) Brigade. They were known as the 20th-23rd (Service) Battalions as part of the Northumberland Fusiliers in the British Army. These battalions landed in France and took part in several battles on the Western Front, including the Battle of the Somme and the Battle of Arras.

Abstract

Box is made of metal, and has a removable lid that rests atop the body of the box. "1914" is inscribed at the center of the lid, within a laurel wreath. Below is inscribed "CHRISTMAS 1914". Around the edges of the box are abstract designs and images that include arrows and what appears to be a scepter. Within these images are roundels inscribed with the names of various Allied countries during World War I: "BELGIUM", "JAPAN", "RUSSIA", "MONTE NEGRO", "SERVIA", and "FRANCE". On the bottom of the box is a stamped coat of arms, including a shield with a chevron and star, a crest with leaves, more stars, a lion rampant, and a scroll underneath bearing the inscription, "ROYAL SHEFFIELD". This manufacturer's stamp, along with the fact that the box is made of metal other than brass and does not bear the profile of Princess Mary, suggests that this has been produced later than the original boxes produced for Christmas 1914 that were paid for by the "Soldiers and Sailors Christmas fund."

Abstract

Candle holder is made from three rifle shells along with their projectiles, soldered together. The projectile of the middle shell has been soldered to a circular base, while the projectiles of the two other shells have been bent outward. The base is decorated with an overlapping leaf pattern. The end of each bullet shell has been cut off to accommodate a small candle, and their size suggests that they are .303-inch caliber shells. Affixed to the body of the left shell is an image of the royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom. This consists of: a royal crown above a shield divided into quarters, with a scroll below. Flanking the shield on the left is a lion, and on the right is a unicorn. Affixed to the body of the middle shell is a cross with arms of equal length, also known as a Greek cross, and on it a bird, possibly an eagle, clutching something in its talons, stars, and leaves. Affixed to the body of the right shell is an image of a royal crown.

Abstract

Shell is made of dark, polished brass, with a stripe of discoloration down one side. Its top edge is crimped to resemble a pie crust. Applied to the surface of the shell is an image of the royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom. This consists of: a lion atop a crown, above a shield with quarters representing England, Scotland, and Ireland. Around the shield is the motto of the Order of the Garter, "HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE", and beneath are Tudor roses, shamrocks, and thistles above a scroll bearing the motto of English monarchs, "DIEU ET MON DROIT". Flanking the shield on the left is a lion, and on the right is a unicorn. The mottoes are partially obscured by the other imagery. Near the bottom of the shell is stenciled in black, "POWDER LOT NO. X1557 MV1735", although this is only partly legible.
