Description
Stunning jewel-like ashtray hand-made during the mid 20th Century. This huge deep cigar bowl ashtray weighs 5 lbs. Big cigar shown below is 6″ long. Will accommodate the largest smokes to the smallest smokes. Heavy weight and deep bowl make this a great ashtray for parties or outdoors because it stays put and has a deep well to contain the ashes.

It’s thick walls are full of tiny well-formed concentric controlled bubbles. Hand blown by a skilled glass artist. May be an early (1940s-1950s) Blenko Art Glass piece, or possibly by Erickson (Swedish glass maker who moved to America in the 1940s).
