Bought in second hand store for $6 AUD. A faintly tinged clear glass. I have no idea of the period, probably mid-century, but looks possibly 30s...or was that 70s? Ambiguous, no? May be for both cigarettes and cigars. It's very beautiful, as you can see.
3 x 4 x 2.5 inches
Any information/guess, anyone? :)

That's some chunk of glass! I would guess somewhere between the 1950s/1970s.

I'll be keeping a lookout for coloured ones now. eBay doesn't cut it for me. It seems like cheating :) :)
