Vintage Ashtray and Lighters Collection
This lot features a charming brass horseshoe-shaped ashtray, likely designed to evoke equestrian themes, alongside five vintage cigarette lighters. The ashtray displays detailed craftsmanship, with a raised relief design depicting a jumping horse. The lighters, while varying in style, all appear to be from the mid-20th century, with one prominently branded as a Ronson lighter, a well-known name in vintage lighter manufacturing. This collection represents a nostalgic glimpse into a bygone era of smoking culture and stylish accessories.
Condition and Collectibility
The ashtray and lighters show signs of age and use, with some patina and minor wear consistent with their vintage. While functionality hasn’t been tested, the lighters appear to be in generally good condition for display or potential restoration. This lot would appeal to collectors of vintage smoking accessories, equestrian memorabilia, or mid-century modern design, offering a unique and decorative addition to any collection or display.
