This ashtray with matchbox holder is from brass. It is from Austria, from the Berndorfer Metallwarenfabrik. According to the hallmark, it dates back to the years between 1891 and 1927. Around the match stand, there is a holder which catches the cigarette ashes. The ashtray is a wonderful collector piece but also a useful and decorative accessory in every smoking household. The antique ashtray with matchbox holder is in great condition. There are no dents or other damages, just a couple of signs of age.

Alfred Krupp founded the Berndorfer Metallwarenfabrik in 1843 in Berndorf. He received the title of Imperial and Royal Court Supplier in 1898. A peculiarity among the products was the so-called alpaca silver. The alpaca silver has great durability, therefore the company used it a lot. The company donated from its profit to many social institutions in Berndorf. These social institutions were, for example, residential buildings or Berndorf schools.
