c. early to mid 20th century; American Cast iron figural ashtray formed as a butterfly with outstretched wings and raised body details, mounted on a simple wire display stand. The shallow dish form and heat-resistant cast iron construction suggest use as a tabletop ashtray, though it may also serve as a decorative trinket dish. Finished in a dark painted surface with traces of red and gilt-toned highlights visible throughout the textured casting.
Shows paint wear, surface oxidation, scattered finish loss, and general age-related wear throughout. Stand included.
