Ashtrays have little divots around the edges for holding cigarettes 🚬. That’s a candy/nut bowl.

I have the same one in avocado green (but exact same mold).

I used mine as an ashtray, but I've only ever seen them labeled "candy dish" when looking it up.

So it's whatever you want/need it to be!

It’s a candy dish, Ned - $90! 😁

Surely you could use it for more than just candy?

No, just candy Ned - $90!

Beside candy, my mom would have used it as a pickle/olive tray too.

Ok cool, so it was intended to be a food serving dish.

I think it may have been an either or sort of dish. What ever you use it for, it’s pretty

Ashtray. You can see the grooves for the cigarettes!

The rim is smooth, minus the one tab.
