Description
A set of three stacking ladies’ fancy ashtrays from the 1930s to 1950s era.
Likely made in Brazil and likely using the famous Morpho blue butterflies.
The round small dishes seem to have a concave glass coating over the neatly arranged wings, and are surrounded by gold coloured aluminium surrounds, each with 3 cigarette slots.
They’re lightweight and each is different but from the same set.
The colours vary from bright blue iridescent to a lighter golden beige, with some mauves.
Please see all photos showing the different neat arrangements.
They look more iridescent at different angles.
Being aluminium, the frames are susceptible to marks and little dinks and have a few small signs of age.
Very good, each is 9 x 2cm.
