This Pink Floraline Ashtray features a flared square silhouette and a smooth glazed texture, offering a classic aesthetic for curated tabletops.

A quintessential example of mid-century pottery, this piece comes from the Floraline line produced by McCoy, designed to bridge the gap between utility and high-style decor. The soft, dusty rose glaze is complemented by heavy, embossed scrollwork along the scalloped rim, which is accented with a gold-leaf finish. This gold trim has taken on a distressed, spotty patina over the decades, a common occurrence for "cold gold" applications of this era that only enhances its authentic vintage character.

The substantial 8-inch size and deep basin make it as practical for its original purpose as it is for use as a sophisticated trinket tray or vanity dish. Its ornate, almost Victorian-inspired relief work combined with the sleek MCM color palette creates a reverent, timeless presence that suits both traditional and modern interiors. Whether anchoring a coffee table arrangement or holding jewelry on a dresser, this ashtray brings a grounded, storied energy to the room. It remains in good vintage condition, standing as a beautiful remnant of the era's dedication to making everyday household objects feel like works of art.

This item is vintage, 70 years old. All measurements are close but approximate. I measure in quarter inches.
