Unknown hand grenade

Hello

I'm looking for information about this grenade.
I don't have any size about this. I hope tomorrow, maybe.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Tarbelin, some marking, perhaps ?
Where was it found ?

Hello Yoda

In south of France, near Bordeaux.
No Marking.

Looking through Lexpev's pages, ran across a Chimenea from Spain. Similar profile. Different fuzing. May be a lead to final ID.

The top has similarities to the WW1 Italian PO grenade that had an allways fuze. The PO had a can type body though. Possibly related or a derivative of the PO?

I think it's not a Chimenea, those are taller than this one.
