Viking glass company was no exception, and they made some wonderfully beautiful "Smoker's items" as they were called in their catalogs. This ashtray was introduced in 1968 and is seen here in Viking's amazing red color, which has a lot of variance across their pieces. The ashtray is in terrific vintage condition.
