After saying that I shouldn’t really buy ashtrays I went ahead and bought another one on the weekend (I told you I can’t help myself)! But I really do feel my purchase was justified – look at that great retro shape! The yellow is actually a bit softer than it appears in the pics, and there are a few very faint scratches that don’t show up in the photos, but all in all it’s in very good condition. Even if you’re not a smoker it makes sense to have at least one ashtray at home – it beats your guests putting their ciggies out in your pot plants!

Dimensions: 18cmwide x 19cm long x 2cm high

Price: R110

Heart Shaped Bubble Ashtray – SOLD

You might have heard me say this before, but I really do try and stop myself from buying ashtrays (they’re not very PC these days), but there was no way I could turn down a heart shaped bubble glass ashtray! I’m not sure if it was intended to look like a heart, but that’s the best way I can describe the shape. Form aside, I love this Murano-style glass. I have about four pieces of bubble glass in my own collection – but sadly no pink heart-shaped versions! If you’re not a smoker, this glass looks beautiful as a display item, and can also be used to hold knick-knacks (earings, spare change etc.). There are a few scratches in the glass, but nothing too serious. A truly beautiful piece of glass – I hope it goes to a deserving home!

Dimensions: 13cm in diameter (at its widest) x 5cm high

Price: R220

I know it’s kind of ’80s, but I really like the deep red of this glass ashtray. It will definitely stand out on your sideboard or drinks cabinet, plus it’s a nice large piece so perfect for those dinner parties that go on a bit longer than expected!

Note: for the most part the ashtray is in very good condition, but there are one or two scratches in the centre of the ashtray

Green Glass Bowl – SOLD

I’m pretty certain that this bowl was originally designed to be an ashtray, but I suppose it could be out to an alternative use, or even just displayed. It has the most lovely shape to it, with it’s wide brim and low to the ground proportions, there’s something quite elegant about its simplicity. And it’s in excellent condition! A great piece of glass to add to a collection.

Dimensions: 16.5cm in diameter x 4cm high

Price: R95
