Skull ashtrays as a gothic accessory for everyday use
What sets an ordinary ashtray apart from a skull ashtray is obvious: the latter draws attention. The designs run from pared-back skull cold-cast resin pieces through to elaborately worked models featuring occult symbols, ravens, Celtic ornamentation or the colourful look of Mexican Día de los Muertos. It's precisely this breadth that makes skull ashtrays interesting across various gothic, horror and fantasy stylistic directions.
Through their compact size, these ashtrays find space on a coffee table, window sill or balcony without taking up much room. The material – hand-painted cold-cast resin – allows for very fine detail work and provides a solid, decorative presence. Matching companion pieces sit in the wider gothic ashtrays selection, alongside skull decor and skull candle holders for a coherent overall arrangement.
