Invite a grounded and rustic vibe to your study with this 1930 John Wright horse ashtray, featuring a heavy cast metal saddled horse silhouette and authentic Western Americana detailing.

Manufactured in the 1930s by the renowned Pennsylvania foundry, this piece is a rugged example of early 20th-century novelty metalware, featuring a meticulously detailed saddled horse standing sentinel over a triangular basin.

The metal has developed an extraordinary authentic patina over the decades, with deep bronze tones and a natural green verdigris that highlights the relief of the mane and saddle. This "found" quality provides a reverent, timeless feel, making it an ideal accent for a Dark Academia study or an industrial-style gallery. Whether used as a traditional cigar rest, a unique paperweight, or a decorative catch-all for "The Commons," this saddled horse serves as a functional relic of American manufacturing history. Its industrial weight and weathered surface ensure it remains a conversation piece, bringing a sense of historic luxury and rustic charm to the modern home.

This item is vintage, over 90 years old. All measurements are close but approximate. I measure in quarter inches.
