Brass Toilet or WC Shaped Ashtray



SOLD

Novelty brass ashtray in the form of a close-coupled lavatory. The lid lifts to reveal a bowl with two grooves for cigarettes. The lid of the cistern can be removed so matches can be stored within (although they'd have to be quite small and whether the lid can be used as a strike, I'm not sure). I've not seen one of these before and it would make a great addition to a collection. Made in India label on the cistern. The cistern is at a slight angle although I think this may be an original fault as it looks as though it would be very difficult to fix. Otherwise it's in great condition.


Measurements: 11cm x 6cm
