Moroccan Ceramic Ashtray with Candle Holder

Description

Moroccan Craft Ceramic Multifunctional Holder

The Moroccan craft ceramic multifunctional holder, often a combination of candle holder and cigar holder/ashtray.

These pieces are typically handmade in Morocco (Fez) from natural clay/terracotta, with hand-painted motifs in bright colors (green, blue, red, yellow) or with a glossy glaze (such as the signature green of Tamegroute pottery).

They often feature:

• A central hole or raised part for a candle (tea light, waxine light or thicker candle).
• Recesses, slots or side projections/notches for placing cigars or cigarettes horizontally or at an angle (so that they do not roll and the ash is neatly collected).
• Sometimes a bowl or tube shaped section to catch ash, making it double as an ashtray.

Common examples:

• Antique or vintage pieces from the early 20th century with multiple slots for cigars + a candle in the middle.
