Why this ashtray earns its place
Outdoor smoking areas in pubs and venues live with wind. The crown-style design of this Beaumont ashtray—those high sides that rise and curve inward—exists for one practical reason: to keep ash from scattering across the table when the breeze picks up. At 100 mm diameter and 44 mm tall, it's sized for a single user at a table or bar, stable enough that it won't tip when tapped, wide enough to catch properly.
The material is bakelite (a durable, phenolic resin plastic), which means it's both shatterproof and designed to take the wear of heavy use. This isn't glassware that'll chip. It's black, clean-looking against any garden furniture, and dishwasher-safe when you need to clean it properly—or rinse under the tap if you're managing a busy service. At 604 grams, it's solid in hand without being unwieldy.
This is the single unit. If you're outfitting a garden or patio with one table, or replacing a broken ashtray, this is your choice. If you're fitting out multiple tables or spots, the 10-pack version makes more sense economically. Either way, you're buying the same proven design that's worked in British pub gardens for decades.
