Ash Tray - Possibly Czech??
« on: October 27, 2010, 09:03:36 PM »
Hi All,

This is my first post ever!!

I have an amber ashtray and I am wondering if it is Czech in origin? My daughter seems to suggest it is. There are nice indentations around the base and a flat square shaped bottom. Photos attached. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I have just started collecting glass.

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

I have not found it in Chribska catalogues, not Skrdlovice, possibly Mstisov or Karlovarske sklo, if Czech/Czechoslovakian.
