Hi there
Back from the charity shop again!
What on earth is this? Its clear glass with a textured bottom (like WF bark). length 19.5cm, depth 7.5cm and height 3cm. It has a large oval indentation and a longer, shallower one extending from it. It's the wrong shape to be an ashtray, my first thought and is flipping heavy.

For lying a pen on?
-
Aaaaaaahhh! BIG possibility!
-
Does anyone know anything else about it? Make? Country? Date? You know, the usual things! I long for the day when I can identify and not just pick your brains.
:D
-
For laying a pipe onto perhaps? Or a desktidy - keep pens and paperclips in?
I'd think possibly Scandi but no idea who, Flick.
-
Defo a pipe rest or a cigar ashtray, and most likely made in Germany - I have something similar with a Zwiesel sticker.

Thanks - I can say I bought it for the boyfriend for his Davidoffs then! That'll keep him happy. :D
-
Is the bowl too small for a spoon rest?
-
bit posh for a spoon rest! :)
-
I would rather rest a spoon in it than a pipe! :lol:
-
True enough! but I do love the smell of cigars. :)
