Rare Vintage Parksmith Ceramic Sip N Smoke Ashtray Drink Holder Avocado Green

$45.00

This vintage ceramic “Sip N Smoke” tray by Parksmith Corp. brings together playful design and practical function, perfectly capturing the carefree spirit of Mid-Century leisure. Made in Japan for Parksmith Corp., New York City, during the 1960s–1970s, this tray features a dual-purpose design: one side functions as an ashtray with two cigarette rests, while the other side serves as a drink holder. The raised lettering across the surface reads: “Your Daily Double A Sip N’ A Smoke”, a witty nod to the cocktail-and-cigarette culture of the era.

The glossy avocado green glaze sets this piece apart, as most examples were produced in ivory. The rich glaze highlights subtle variations in tone and texture, adding depth to its retro charm. Highly collectible among enthusiasts of Mid-Century Modern ceramics and novelty barware, this tray makes an excellent conversation piece, display accent, or unique gift for design lovers.

Why It’s Special?
Unlike the more common ivory glaze, this piece is finished in the harder-to-find avocado green colorway, making it a scarce and desirable variation of the Parksmith “Sip N Smoke” design.
