This is a vintage, 1940's, five piece set of ashtrays. There are four mini personal ashtrays and a nesting tray. They feature roses on white porcelain with gold borders. They nest together very well. Hand painted. 

Years ago, women would gather together and smoke. Whether it was book club, a Bridge game or just an afternoon on the veranda, almost all ladies brought their cigarettes with them, and every good hostess had a set similar to this on hand.

Whether you're a grand millennial or just fascinated with the past, these ashtrays really are a piece of history. You don't have to smoke to display these lovely and delicate pieces.  No chips or cracks.
