Description

This exceptional vintage Elizabeth II sterling silver ashtray has a circular rounded form.

The centre of the circular well is surmounted with a cast silver figure wearing a military uniform and parachute backpack; this figure secures to the underside with a wing nut.

The broad rim incorporates two curved cigarette recesses/receivers and is encircled with the contemporary bright cut engraved inscription 'To Major J.H. Graham M.B.E. T.D. on relinquishing command of Support Company 2^ND Dec 1956' and 'Presented by all Ranks of Support Company of 15^TH (Scottish) Bn. The Parachute Regiment (T.A.)'.

This impressive vintage ashtray was crafted by the renowned London silversmith Garrard & Co Ltd and bears the retailer's mark 'Garrard & Co Ltd, 112 Regent Street W' to the underside of the rim.

This impressive presentation piece was crafted in the same style and bears the same central design as the bowl A8167.
