Trench art refers to objects that were made by soldiers, prisoners of war, or civilians during times of conflict, usually from materials that were readily available to them. Cigarette lighters were a popular item to decorate during wartime, and many examples of trench art lighters can be found today in collections and museums.

These lighters were often made from spent ammunition, shell casings, or other metal scraps, and were then decorated with engravings, embossing, or other designs. Some trench art lighters also incorporated personal mementos or symbols, such as regimental badges or family crests.

Collecting trench art cigarette lighters can be a fascinating hobby, as each piece is unique and has its own history. Some collectors focus on specific periods or conflicts, while others collect based on the type of material used or the style of decoration. As with any collectible, the value of trench art cigarette lighters can vary widely depending on their rarity, condition, and historical significance.
