That was pretty much my point from above too. You're smoking cigars, but concerned about the amount of lead transferring from glass to a cigar wrapper?

You thought I was joking?

Here's a picture of one. Uranium glass turns really bright under a blacklight and can be clear or have some color to it in regular light.

Id be careful ashtrays (of any kind) have been linked to cancer in rats in California.

Now look in the mirror and tell yourself boy I am glad I am not a rat in California.

Check for uranium glass or vaseline glass ashtrays on Ebay, craigslist or antique shops. You may want to read up on them a little so you are actually getting the real thing. The glass must gllow under a black light.
