Mid-Century Modern Translucent Glass Decorative Dish by Elsa Peretti for Tiffany
Part of Elsa Peretti iconic Thumbprint collection for Tiffany & Co, this translucent glass decorative dish/ ash tray was designed in 1978, and executed shortly thereafter.

This shallow circular ashtray features a single, slight "thumbprint" indentation in translucent glass.
