These are typically listed as toothpick holders or nut bowls, but our experience is they are individual cigarette holders, which is consistent with their form and for the time period – however, they would make lovely individual vases for a wedding or special event. 3.375 in diameter x 2.25 inches height. Overall very good condition, light scuffs, scattered pitting, dimple on one. We have a fine selection of quality items for sale at Amphora Art & Antiques.
