Huge Blenko Party Ashtray in Rare Plum Art Glass

Super scarce color and decor on this massive hand-made art glass ashtray.

Stunning - HUGE - party ashtray in like-new condition with original label. Measures 10½" wide and 2" tall. Weighs just over 5 lbs. Has 6 smoke rests with 3 sets of 2 rests side by side. Will rest cigars, cigarettes and smaller. The color from a distance looks black. It is actually a stunning dark plum color, perhaps an amethyst variant.  Click here to learn more about Blenko Art Glass. The decor is amazing, such detail and unique styling. Its a 3-dimensional peaks and valleys pattern.  Some of the 'peaks' are utilized as feet, elevating the ashtray above the surface.  Very unusual and artistic.  The ash bowl surface is has smooth valleys where the peaks jut out on the base.  These smooth 'valleys' make perfect butt-smashers. The ashtray has a Blenko sticker (see image 2).  This 'Block B' sticker was designed by John Nickerson and used from 1982 to 1999.
