Add a little old-world Italian charm to your home with these vintage handmade ceramic ashtrays, each featuring its own colorful, hand-painted folk art design.
From rustic countryside cottages and Mediterranean coastal scenes to whimsical animals, every piece has its own personality. The expressive brushwork, vibrant glazes, and subtle irregularities give these little dishes the character that makes vintage Italian pottery so collectible.
Originally made as ashtrays, these small ceramic pieces are also lovely displayed on a shelf, arranged on a vintage bar cart, or used as little catchall dishes for rings, coins, and other small treasures.
Each ashtray is sold individually. Choose your favorite design (A–F) from the dropdown menu using the labeled photograph as your guide.
