Description

Antique elegant ruby blown glass with a golden glow.

Have a smoke and a little spirit in elegant style! Beautiful ruby blown glass goblet and cigarette or paraphernalia holder. Rich golden ruby color achieved using real gold from yesteryear.

In great + condition. It’s rare to find antique glass in this decor style without wear. This set is almost perfect with a few tiny pinholes and scratches of wear on the gold surface that cannot be seen unless held up to the light. The gold appears perfect under normal conditions. The flashed gold ruby is in excellent condition, bright and with a glowing gold reflection. No chips or cracks.

The cigarette holder style was made by elegant glass makers of the early 1900’s to the 1940’s. Looks like it may be by Cambridge Glass, an elegant maker of the era. This set is at least 70 years old.

The holder is 3.5″ tall with a 3.5″ base. Its turned up base was meant to be an ashtray, but don’t use it as one. The decor is delicate and will not hold up to grinding hot ashes into it. It could be used as a matchstick or other paraphernalia holder. The liquor glass stem is 4.25″ tall.
Both items are hand-blown with pontil marks. The bases are applied to the vessels.
