A Shimmering, Sparkling PAIR OF VINTAGE, ETCHED BRASS ASHTRAYS FROM INDIA are today's offering. These beautiful Vintage Ashtrays are 6-Sided, with stunning, twisted Rope edges, 3 indents for placement of cigarettes, Etched Swirls around the 6, inner flat areas and a Gorgeous Center Apple Blossom style flower! They each MEASURE 4.75" at the widest point and they stand approx. .75" tall. They are a nice, heavy weight and quality pieces, both MARKED "MADE IN INDIA" on the bottom.
One of the trays is in EXCELLENT, NEW CONDITION with a beautiful shine. The other, while a matching piece, has spotting of oxidation or some form of age spotting. I believe that if you were to use some brass cleaner on this piece, it would end up as gorgeous as the first. NO damage to the pieces and they most likely date to the late 1960's or early 1970's.
Please view all of the photos (note that the odd look to one tray in perfect condition, is simply due to flash photography and will not be on the tray when it arrives) and feel free to write with any questions or concerns, PRIOR to placing your bid. Also, take a peek at my other Auctions and Store Listings for more Vintage Home Decorating, Collectibles, Vintage Lingerie, Clothing, Handbags and More!

ALMOST EVERY ITEM I SELL IS CONSIDERED TO BE "VINTAGE" OR "ANTIQUE". THIS MEANS I CANNOT POSSIBLY VERIFY ALL "SMELLS", WHETHER OR NOT THE ITEM HAS BEEN AROUND SMOKE, PETS OR OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL IRRITANTS.
Any & All Returns are at seller's discretion. I will NOT refund for buyer's remorse so please, ask all questions PRIOR to bidding. It is the buyer's responsibility to do so. I only refund for mistaken misrepresentation. NO shipping costs are refundable. If a refund is allowed, item must be returned within 3 days, in the exact condition it was shipped out in. Almost all items sold are Antique, Vintage or previously owned so there will be wear which is described in each listing.
***PAYMENT IS EXPECTED WITHIN 5 DAYS OF PURCHASE. CONTACT MUST BE MADE WITHIN 2 DAYS OF AUCTION END TO CONFIRM SHIPPING ADDRESS, OR I WILL ASSUME YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED IN MAKING PAYMENT AND ITEM CAN/MAY BE RE-LISTED, WITH APPROPRIATE STEPS TAKEN. PAYPAL IS THE ONLY FORM OF PAYMENT ACCEPTED. *ABSOLUTELY NO E-CHECKS!!!* THANK YOU FOR YOUR BIDS!
I run my Ebay business by myself, which means ONE woman takes the photos, writes the listings, purchases the items and ships them all out. *I only ship ONE DAY A WEEK, normally on SATURDAY, and pack all items on FRIDAY. *This tells you that if your item is not paid for by the early evening, on the prior Thursday, your things will not go out for another week. I do my very best to try and ship them earlier, if at all possible, but normally, unless asked for prior to bidding, I don't make more than one day available to ship. If you need rush delivery, PLEASE ASK ABOUT IT, PRIOR to bidding! *Please keep in mind, I cannot control what happens with your package once it leaves my hands. This is why I recommend Insuring EVERY item you purchase.
**REGARDING SHIPPING COSTS: PER EBAY, THE POSTAL CALCULATOR BELOW IS AN ESTIMATE ONLY! I do my very best to assure my buyers of the least possible expense for postage but I DO NOT box my items prior to selling them so that I have them available for questions. Any handling fees are listed right in the auction descriptions. If ACTUAL POSTAGE COSTS are higher than the calculator estimates, it is the RESPONSIBILITY of the BUYER to PAY THESE COSTS. Thank you.
Insurance is not required for every auction, however, if an item is fragile, or delicate, I will insist it be insured. This protects you as the buyer, as well as myself. It is a very minimal cost to pay for coverage. Buyers may choose from any method of shipping that is available for that PARTICULAR AUCTION. Often, weight restrictions must be taken into consideration. I never force you to choose a shipping method that saves ME time but costs YOU money!
RETURNS ARE AT THE SELLER'S DISCRETION ONLY & GIVEN FOR MISTAKEN MISREPRESENTATION EXCLUSIVELY! IT IS THE BUYER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO VIEW ALL PHOTOS, READ THE ENTIRE LISTING INCL.
