A fantastic looking ashtray with only slight wear to the gilding on the outermost edge. As you can see, it's a real monster in terms of its size and although I'm saying it's an ashtray, it's one of those items that may have been used as a nibbles tray. Hopefully, it didn't have a dual role or the nibbles may have had a pretty horrible taste.
Either way, it's a cracker and I'm absolutely over the moon to have it in my collection.
Great tray, cool Napoleon image
@Newfld, thanks and agree. There's a bit of Scritti Politti going on with this ashtray that's why I like it so much. In my 45rpm's that I posted a while ago, there's a sleeve for 'Asylums in Jerusalem' which uses the Courvoisier logo very effectively.
