Here is a wonderful old depression era cigarette holder. This holder is made from that wonderful pink glass of that era.
This holder stands 3 5/8" tall. The circular base is 2 5/8" around. The holder itself is 2 ¼" tall. The top of the mouth from side to side is 2 7/8" long and it is 1 ½" wide.

This pressed glass holder is decorated with a semi-opened rose surrounded by leaves and stems from the rose bush. Both sides are identical. The round base is graced with almost ivy looking leaves encircling it.
I see a small area over one rose that looks like it might have a hairline crack; it is really hard to tell if it is one, or if it came from the manufacturers that way. I see no other nicks or chips or flea bites, just the usual bubbles that are common in glass of this era.
This could be used as a cute display for those who collect tobacciana. It could also be used in a variety of different ways: you could use it for business cards, a Q-tip holder in the bathroom, a deck of cards, business cards, or even as a planter for the air ferns on your desk. As small as it is, it doesn’t take up much room, but is a wonderful conversation piece.
