This is a well made Italian art glass ashtray that probably dates from the 1950s- 1960s.
The glass is heavy and has a smooth polished bottom to sit flat. The twisted ribbons of white and pink were expertly crafted.

Hi Scott
Nice piece using both the Zanfrico and Latticino techniques. The Latticino are the thin strands of molten glass with the Zanfrico being the larger twisted glass you see

Great piece of True Murano Art Glass -- with both the Zanfrico and Latticino techniques.
Thanks again rose-- I appreciate you commenting. I think this one was a souvenir piece originally purchased in the 1950s- 60s.
