What better way to smoke in the dark than with an uraline ashtray?

Made in the 1940s and 1950s, this green opalescent glass promotional ashtray is made of uraline, a glass containing small amounts of uranium whose natural color is green. Its phosphorescent properties, when exposed to strong UV light, make it harmless to health, as long as its use remains purely decorative.

This charming ashtray features a geometric design reminiscent of the Art Deco style. Two Scottish Terrier dogs are acid-etched in the center of the ashtray, making it both a playful and highly decorative promotional ashtray, perfect for a collector.

This type of object was common in bars in the 1950s and was often found near billiard tables. Some models of this style could be placed in designated spaces on mid-20th-century billiard tables.

Lovers of advertising ashtrays and glasses containing uraline, don't wait any longer and adopt this Art Deco-style ashtray with its Scottish Terrier dogs today!
