Heavy modernist ashtray
« on: June 30, 2011, 07:09:39 PM »
Hi,
I recently purchased this ashtray, it was very cheap and being a non smoker it would have had to be or I would not have bought it. I wonder if anyone on this super site can tell me who they think might have created it please? Over to you.
Much Obliged,
Bryn

That is quite a distinctive pattern in the base Bryn, can you get a photo that shows all of it?
