Help with ID on ashtray

(1/4) > >>

I love all Glass:
Hello everyone, I am a new member please be kind. I have this very nice Sommerso ashtray, the gold is lovely. It measures 15cm across and 6cm tall and a heavy .823kg in weight. Any clue to a maker?  It is a real stunner to look at, all ideas gratefully received.    Thanks     Simon

Hi and Welcome  :rah:

Lovely ashtray -- I am leaning (guessing) towards Czech Glass ?? -- but sometimes I lean too far over, and fall right off the Map.....

So I am sure others like be able to give you a better, positive ID.

Again Welcome, you will Enjoy it here!!  :hi:

A nicely made ashtray. I don't think it's Czech, at least not Skrdlovice, Chribska or Harrachov, as the rim is wrong. The rim also rules out Afors, from Sweden, which made a similar type of ashtray. I don't think it's sommerso, strictly speaking. There are many glassworks who have made something like this. However, the flat rim combined with the hot-worked  lumpy bottom make it quite distinctive so I think you'll be able to id it at some point.

Welcome to the board and, don't worry, you'll soon learn to appreciate johnphillip.

It's nice... style points towards 50s to 70s. Can't pin it to a country, I'm afraid. If not Czech, it could be German, but with the flowing lines it might also hail from for instance Belgium. I hope others can help you further along.
