The item on the left is an open-top vintage vehicle interior ashtray featuring a distinct oval silhouette framed by a chrome-plated top rim.
The metal basin contains three cigarette rests built into its inner frame, designed for passenger convenience.
Around the side body, it features a textured, light-colored or ivory mesh panel background centered with Cadillac's iconic gold-tone chevron "V" emblem, which signifies the classic mid-1950s styling typical of luxury GM trim packages. The lower perimeter and mounting base show mild age-appropriate surface wear, minor tarnish on the gold trim, and light pitting consistent with original vintage automotive hardware.
The item on the right is a rectangular covered vintage automotive ashtray casing finished in a warm brass or gold-tone metallic surface. The top lid features a prominent embossed chevron "V" emblem sharply pressed into the metal cover, mirroring Cadillac's signature luxury motif of the era.
Designed with a clean, low-profile hinged or pull-top cover, it shows faint surface scuffs, light finish oxidation, and natural patina along the edges, but retains its solid structure and distinct mid-century automotive styling.
