Unknown Ashtray~ quirky retro feel~ id please
« on: January 05, 2009, 06:34:21 PM »
Hello to all,

Mike picked us this Retro and  weighty ashtray today for a couple of pound.  We have no idea what it is, but he liked the feel and look of it.  Weighs approx 640g, 14cms x 9cms. Any suggestions and assistance would be appreciated.

Please take a look at the gallery pics:-

Spot on Anne, Vladislav Urban design for Rosice. Nice  find, and the smaller of the two sizes.

Many thanks to both Anne & Marcus,

We had a sneaky suspicion, but you have now given us true confirmation. 

We are really pleased with "our find", and now we'll be on the look out for the larger one!

Many thanks
Sharron & Mike
