About the Item

Beautiful vintage carved onyx ashtray, likely made in Mexico in the 1970s. This piece stands out for its organic, almost sculptural form, with a raw natural edge that contrasts nicely against the smooth, polished interior. The stone features layered banding in soft white, cream, and rich amber tones, creating a landscape-like effect that feels both earthy and refined. The interior is deeply carved and polished, giving it a soft, almost luminous quality, while the exterior retains its natural texture for added character. Originally designed as an ashtray, it works just as well today as a catchall for jewelry, keys, or small objects, or simply as a decorative piece on its own. Each angle reveals different patterns in the stone, making it a unique, one-of-a-kind object. Unattributed, likely Mexican manufacture, circa 1970s. In excellent vintage condition with minor natural variations and wear consistent with age. Check our listings for a large collection of vintage ashtrays. Orders are carefully packed and shipped within 24–48 hours.
