HISTORY
The staple accessory of the 1950s and 1960s has been hidden away in closets and basements since smoking indoors became unacceptable and unwelcome, but lovers of mid-century modern have long appreciated the good design of many high quality glass and ceramic ashtrays. Now the market has grown to include thrifters looking to inject a bit of affordable nostalgia, personality and design history in their homes.
It turns out ashtrays are also very versatile, useful for holding jewelry, jelly beans or votive candles. Online listings often refer to them as “trinket trays” or “catchalls.”
There’s also the fact that cannabis use is being legalized in more states, creating a practical need for ashtrays
