Add a Touch of Vintage Elegance to Your Space with this Unique Mustard Ashtray! The vintage Catalin-Bakelite ashtray, in exceptional unused condition, is a beautiful representation of 1930s craftsmanship. 

Made from the renowned Catalin-Bakelite, popular in the mid-20th century, this mustard-coloured ashtray is a rare find given its condition since most of these ashtrays were used and tainted with burn marks. The one weakness of Bakelite is that it will leave purple burn marks when overheated so this is definitely best suited as a display piece or trinket dish.

  • Era: 1930s to 1970s
