Vintage Cawston Ostrich Farm Souvenir Art Nouveau Metal Dish Ashtray
From CapricornOneVintage
Super cool vintage art nouveau style souvenir. The Cawston Ostrich Farm was in operation from 1886-1935 in Pasadena California. I'd date this to around the 1910s or 20s. The inside image reads: Souvenir California Cawston Ostrich Farm and features a couple of ostriches with the words trade mark next to them. I'm not sure what metal it's made from, a magnet will stick to it, so it's just copper colored. This has a nice patina and will need a cleaning if you so desire, otherwise it's delightfully shabby. I'm not even sure if this was an ashtray or a just a decorative thing. This measures: appx 4.5" in diameter. There aren't any dents in this, just some paint loss here and there, but that's to be expected for something of it's age.
