Missing the cigarette lighter but includes the match/cigarette holder and ashtray. Ashtray is about 5.5" diameter x 1.5" high. Holder is about 3.5" high x 3.5" diameter. Both signed in such tiny etching "Lalique France" that I can understand why these were not spotted.. Very difficult to get images of the signature.
They were $.99 each. The cigarette lighter is just another holder with a cigarette lighter in it.
Bottom of the ashtray has some scratches and the ghosts of the missing pads, which I replaced, and the holder is mint, no pads, but I added some. May go back tomorrow to see if the lighter shows up.
Fantastic find! And what a steal!
Thanks for your comments, dav2no1! A happy surprise in a shop I stopped going to a couple of months ago because all they had was junk...
They are lovely, the Lalique is just a bonus!
Thanks, BHIFOS!
Oh WOW!! what a find ! You did well lighter or not. I'd go back as well you never know. Sets like this can get separated during a thrift's processing.
Thanks for your comments, mikelv85! Got the lazies, so did not go back!

Thank you, Watchsearcher!
Super find! You've got the eyes for the prize, for sure! They are so beautiful, congrats!
Thanks, Faith.k! I knew they were Lalique as soon as I picked them up. Did not have to look for a signature. So easy to identify due to the weight and quality of the mold and finish.
Thanks, vcal and Faith.k!
