A simple piece of design with the ashtray featuring 9 costs of arms - presumably cities and countries that featured at the exhibition.
The ash tray appears to be made from melamine - which was very popular at the time. As with the other melamine items from this exhibition the base is marked COGEBI etc - see photograph.
