Sascha Brastoff MCM Star Steed Ashtray

Mid-Century Sascha Brastoff large ashtray featuring the California artist's iconic star steed horse design. Dates from the 1953-1962 time period. Approximately 8.5" diameter and 1.5" high. Signed "Sascha B" on front. Condition: flaws are 3 chips on the back, likely plate holder damage by previous owner. And possible gilded paint loss. There are no other chips or cracks. There appears to be some gild paint that has worn off around the leaves and above the horse's head. You can see the faint remains of it in certain lighting. It doesn't detract from the piece IMO. Comes from smoke-free fragrance-free cat-friendly home. Questions, offers, and bundles always welcome. Check out my other Sascha B piece!
