📖 A Little Piece of History

A striking example of vintage glassware, this substantial square glass ashtray captures the clean lines and geometric styling associated with mid-century design.

Believed to date from around the 1960s–1970s, the piece features a beautifully balanced combination of a square outer form and a generously recessed circular centre, complemented by four integrated cigarette rests.

Its thick, clear glass construction gives it an impressive presence, while the interplay of curves, angles and light creates an attractive decorative effect.

Originally designed as a practical household accessory, today it also makes a wonderful retro display piece, decorative trinket dish or addition to a mid-century glassware collection.
