Description
Elegant high-end Art Nouveau period colored crystal ashtray.
Big, handsome cigar-sized ashtray hand-cut in the early 1900s to 1940s. Probably of Bohemian (French) origin.
Made of heavy lead crystal overlaid with dark emerald green crystal, then hand-cut back to clear.
Naturalist yet geometric decor indicates the transition between Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods, estimated circa 1900-1940. Very heavy, weighs 4.2 lbs. Measures 7.5″ round and 2″ tall. There are four cigar-sized tapered rests on the flat 1.25″ wide rim. Beautiful…yet manly. Top-of-the-line gift for the elegant cigar smoker.
