Hi CW Gang ~
Thought I would share this with you. I had 3 different ones of these, and this is the only one I have left. I should have gave it a better cleaning as it is shiny, just dusty....LOL. Has a piece of marble in the base all intact. These still come in handy on the patio when your outside and have company -- as there still are Smokers.
Thanks for LOOKING // LOVING !!

==================
Probably made for o'halys by Metalcraft Company Ltd. They made lamp parts for other companies in other names. This is exactly like one of Metalcraft designs. There is no marble as marble would not let light through. The base part is slag glass which they poured colors into as it was formed, so that all of the ashtrays were different for that poured colour, although there were many close matches.
I love this! Something you definitely don't see anymore.
This is definitely the Canadian version. I do not like the american ones as much even though they tried to make theirs more art deco. The parts of the canadian ones were more monumental in nature.
OMG! My mom used to have one of these. Nice!
