My new Hotel Nacional ashtray.

They sold in 4 minutes. Someone who used to be very active here but is suspiciously quiet since being called out as a flipper auctioned off a medium sized one for $160 on eBay recently.

Ouch. That is pricey.

These are available at the Concierge counter (souvenirs) at the Nacional for 20 CUC. There are a few models but these are the medium sized version of the classic ashtray. I bought the exact same selection of two -- pink and gray. Not huge, but also light enough to drag around Cuba for a week!

Actually, these are the size that sold for 31 CUC each.  A bit over 7" diameter.

The concierge counter had about a dozen different types of the ones pictured in the original post for 20 CUC.  The next size up were 31 CUC, and I only saw one of these while there, and I bought it!  They sell larger ones as well, but did not have any in stock while I was visiting late-February.  

Actually, these are the 31 CUC size....measure just over 7" diameter

Sorry about that!! Hard to tell size without a reference in the photos.  Good snag- I only saw 1 that size during 4 visits over the week.

I really want one =). Someday I hope

Finally had a pleasant evening outside so I pressed the new accoutrement, henceforth known as "The Big Piece", into service.

Thank you CopperHeaD !  The Big Piece will forever be treasured, and your thoughtfulness never forgotten. Perfect example of what being a Brother/Sister of the Leaf is all about.

Glad you finally got an opportunity to enjoy it!  Ash it up, Brother!!  Christened with an Upmann.....Nice choice!  Somehow, looks even nicer with that beautiful stick!
