So for the last 15+ years Ive either used a cheap Walmart ashtray or a two stick stone/porcelain one I brought back from Mexico on vacation.

I was in Philly recently and I had planned to stop into the Holt store and was looking to bring something home. Looking through their website I seen the Perdomo ashtrays. Well the planets didnt align for a store visit but they had free shipping so I said what the hey and ordered. And because it was free shipping on the whole order I threw in a 5er of Perdomo's to go with it.

Man this thing is suwheat.

You sure cant beat this with a stick for $30 delivered. Its a fair size and the bottom is not hollow like some are.

Funny how an ashtray can add to the enjoyment of smoking a cigar.

Looks great! Nice design and colors.
 
That is gorgeous. I have a similar style RyJ from years ago, but the painting is wearing off. I have to keep an eye out for a new one. That is a stunner.
 
I bought a Great Value can of string beans and dumped out the beans and hit it with rattle can black paint. When Im done smoking I drop the nub in there and then clean the new one and put it back in the box it came in so hopefully it will maintain its splendor.;)

Stuff on my porch accumulates a layer of grime/crud from nature so fingers crossed.
