Senator Sized Intaglio Glass Eagle Ashtray

Huge, heavy cigar ashtray. Perfect for the patio.

Massive. Weighs 6 lbs. Measures 10" wide, 2" deep. Big enough for parties, patios and big fat cigar smoking Senators.

Made in the 1940s-1950s.  The glass has straw marks on the bottom caused by an old-fashioned method of cooling. A trapped air bubble (inside the glass) resides on one leg, this is also a result of old-fashioned glass making methods.

The dark reddish/amber chestnut color virtually glows with the varying thickness of the glass.  The seat is embossed with an eagle and stars.  Pressed deeply into glass from the backside.  Inner surface is smooth and slightly raised from the deep intaglio on the seat.

In excellent condition.  Hand finished, no seams, quality glass.

Makes a good sized bowl, candle holder and incense burner when not in ash service.
