EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the historical significance of a Mustard Pot belonging to the Mess of the 4th Battalion Royal Tank Regiment during World War I. The Mustard Pot, made by the renowned British silverware and metalware manufacturer Mappin & Webb, is a commemorative piece that holds great importance in military history. During the First World War, mustard gas was a lethal and devastating weapon used extensively by both the Allied and Central Powers. Soldiers on the front lines were often exposed to this toxic agent, leading to severe burns and respiratory damage. To help mitigate the effects of mustard gas, soldiers carried personal mustard pots to mix and apply a neutralizing agent, known as "mustard gas antidote," to their skin in case of exposure. This particular Mustard Pot, belonging to the Mess of the 4th Battalion Royal Tank Regiment, is an electro-plated nickel silver piece, showcasing the intricate metalwork and craftsmanship of Mappin & Webb. The historical value of this artifact lies not only in its functional purpose but also as a symbol of resilience and survival in the face of adversity. The 4th Battalion Royal Tank Regiment was an integral part of the British Army during WWI, playing a crucial role in the development and deployment of tanks on the battlefield. This Mustard Pot is a poignant reminder of the daily struggles and sacrifices made by soldiers during this period, and the vital role that even the most seemingly ordinary objects could play in their survival. This print offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to the history of the British military during WWI and the important role that Mappin & Webb played in supplying essential items to the troops.
