I use a flower pot or this old ceramic bowl I threw in college as an ashtray. Works for me. Sorry. I really like the big crystal single ashtrays, though. I also remember the old-school ashtrays on stands that were in fancy hotels back in the days where you could smoke in hotel lobbies.
That's what I've been looking for -- my grandmother had a pair when I was growing up that set the ideal for me -- no luck finding one that really has the same look and appeals to me yet.
