Murano Glass Turtle Ashtray, Authentic Vintage Blown Art Glass

Murano Glass Turtle Ashtray, Authentic Vintage Blown Art Glass. Beautiful Amber - brown, tortoiseshell effect glass. Excellent condition - looks like it has never been used. No evidence of cracks, chips, scratches or repairs. When this sweet turtle is sitting, he/she looks like a paperweight or piece of art glass.

The surprise is when he/she is turned over - the feet serve as cigarette rests for the ashtray (which is his upsidetown shell)! Fabulous conversation piece and a must-have addition for an art glass collection. Please view the photographs as this is also considered a description of the quality product you are purchasing.
