Heavy advertising Willow Pattern type ash tray for Schweppes, The "3" Bitters. Made by Gien, France. Tobacciana Advertising Blue and white heavy ash tray advertising Schweppes. 173 mm diameter. 1950s
Very Good. An unusual piece, this is thick and heavy. French made, this is one of the few items I have seen with the 3 bitters on it. A flake chip under the heel where it rests on the table. Crazing throughout. Some of this is dark through discolouration. Little glaze flake. Couple of little spots of rust stain. Not to be confused with the little tip trays that are often seen, this is a thick, heavy ash tray made in France. A lovely item. Grade: 7.9 Estimate: $50 - 75
