Title
🇺🇦 Golden Sunflower & Blue Leaves Shell Casing — Ukrainian Keepsake 🌻

Description
A sunflower that stands tall for Ukraine—and never needs a sunny windowsill. 🌻💙💛

Given to Olena by residents of the Ivankiv area, then generously donated to us for fundraising, this decorated casing features a golden-yellow sunflower with a deep blue centre, surrounded by symmetrical blue and gold foliage.

The dark background makes the petals and pointed leaves stand out beautifully, while delicate curling flourishes complete the design. An olive-green neck and base frame the artwork, with a glimpse of blue inside the open rim.

A thoughtful gift for a sunflower lover or supporter of Ukraine, this slender keepsake brings colour and meaning to a shelf or display. All the floral charm, none of the increasingly apologetic watering. 😉

Believed to be from approximately 12.7mm (.50 calibre) ammunition, this casing may have been fired in defence of Ukraine’s skies, although its exact service history has not been confirmed. Now repurposed for display, it helps support Ukraine through art and fundraising.

These decorated casings are now in short supply, as getting them out of Ukraine has become increasingly difficult. Availability is limited, and we cannot promise when more will arrive.

100% inert, this is a decorative keepsake. Ownership and import requirements vary by location, so please check the rules where you live before ordering.

Approximate measurements:

• Height: 170mm (17cm)

• Base diameter: 21mm

• Believed original calibre: 12.7mm (.50 calibre)

Original surface marks and individual decorative finishes are part of its character.

Every penny spent in our store goes towards helping Ukraine. 💙💛
