WW1 Metal scent bottle (Trench art) “The last Hug”

Trench art: a round flattened metal scent bottle showing, on the front, a couple embracing in front of a flag with Lorraine crosses. The word FRANCE is clearly readable, while on the internal edge of the scene what is probably a signature remains uncertain (something similar to “S. Crunx”); on the other side is depicted a cannon and two crossed flags, apparently French. The cannon, on a meadow full of flowers, is marked “75” and came into use in 1898.
