Update Brass Horse Relic

[Brendan75]

Hi all. Hope everyone is well. After posting my Brass horse relic find some members mentioned it might be a ashtray so i did a bit of research on the net last night and it turned out to be indeed a old ash tray. I found a picture of the same ash tray on the net.

Thanks for looking and Happy hunting to all



This is the picture i found on the net



This is where the cigarettes would be placed on the ash tray

Wow, cool find Brendan! Never seen anything like it

interesting. I thought ashtray then decided against it. I see how it could function as a tray but the butt cradles are almost hidden so it doesn't look like an ashtray. Still haven't seen the back side. Any markings?

What a great piece, anyone on here would like to dig that, any horse enthusiast would want to own it

Your research resolved all questions.

Hi, Thanks for the reply. The butt cradles are not very deep and there is only 2 cradles that is way i did not even think it was a ash tray when i found it. I looked for any markings or writing but do not see any. I have taken a picture of the back and tried to take a picture of the butt cradle at different angles.
