Original WWII Desk ornament aluminum V1 rocket

Desk ornament in the shape of a V1 rocket from the period of the Second World War or possibly the liberation period. This ornament is made of aluminum and mounted on a cleanly designed triangular base, giving it an industrial appearance. The design directly references the historical Vergeltungswaffe 1 (V1), the unmanned weapon deployed by Germany from 1944 onwards.It is unclear whether this example was used by a German unit during the war, or whether it may have been issued in Belgium (Antwerp) as a commemorative piece marking the resilience of Antwerp during the V1 attacks of 1944 in the liberation period.An interesting collectible for any militaria or Second World War collection.Article number: 17782
