Ashtrays
by RAW
The RAW Glass Ashtray is a heavy, octagonal glass tray designed to catch ash and cradle your blunts between draws. Measuring 11.5 x 11.5 x 2.5 cm and cut with diamond-facet prism detailing, it sits flat on any surface without sliding around. Available in two finishes — Rainbow and The Dark Side — each one ships in a presentation gift box, making it a solid gift for anyone who takes their smoking setup seriously.
Both variants are identical in size (11.5 x 11.5 x 2.5 cm) and glass thickness. The only difference is the finish. Rainbow catches light and throws prismatic colour across the facets — looks brilliant in direct sunlight or under a lamp. The Dark Side is a deeper, moodier tone that hides ash residue better between cleans. If you're the type who wipes down after every session, go Rainbow. If you'd rather not see every speck, The Dark Side is more forgiving.

Complete your setup with a RAW rolling tray to keep your papers, tips, and herb in one spot while the ashtray handles the aftermath. A RAW hemp wick pairs nicely too — cleaner flame, no butane taste, and you can rest it on the ashtray edge between lights.
A dedicated glass ashtray does one thing that makeshift alternatives — tin cans, saucers, old mugs — simply don't: it stays put and contains everything cleanly. The RAW Glass Ashtray weighs enough that a nudge from your elbow won't send it skating across the coffee table. The octagonal shape gives you multiple flat edges to rest a blunt or joint without it rolling off, which is the number one annoyance with round ashtrays or flat plates.
We've sold hundreds of ashtrays over the years and the most common complaint about cheap ones is cracking from heat. This RAW tray is thick glass — you can feel the heft the moment you pick it up. It absorbs heat from a resting cherry without stress fractures. That said, glass is glass. Drop it on tiles from table height and it's done. Keep it on a stable surface and it'll outlast everything else in your smoking kit.
The prism-cut facets aren't just decorative, either. They create small channels that guide loose ash toward the centre rather than letting it pile up on the rim. Not a game-changer, but a nice touch you notice after a few sessions. The 2.5 cm depth means you can go through a full evening without ash spilling over the edges — something shallower trays struggle with.
Honest take: this is a small ashtray. At 11.5 cm across, it's sized for personal use — one or two people, not a party tray. If you're rolling for a group, you'll want something larger or a second one. For solo sessions or a pair sharing a joint, the size is spot on. It doesn't dominate your table and it's easy to tuck into a drawer when company comes round.
The gift box is a genuine bonus. We've had customers buy two — one to keep, one to wrap. For the price of a budget ashtray, you're getting something that actually looks like a considered gift rather than an afterthought. RAW's branding is subtle on this one too; it's present but not screaming at you from every angle like some of their other gear.
Glass doesn't retain odours the way silicone can, and it won't develop burn marks like metal trays over time. It's also the easiest material to wipe completely clean — a quick soak and it looks brand new. The trade-off is fragility, but on a table it's not going anywhere.
The octagonal shape provides multiple flat edges where you can rest a joint or blunt. The faceted rim holds standard-sized rolls securely. It's not a deep groove system, but the flat edges do the job reliably.
It's a genuine prismatic finish — the diamond-facet cuts refract light into visible colour bands, especially under direct light or sunshine. In a dim room it's more subtle, but catch it at the right angle and it throws proper rainbows.
Yes. The 2.5 cm depth catches incense ash without issue, and the flat edges can hold a stick at an angle. Just be aware that incense ash mixed with tobacco or herb ash gets messy quickly — give it a wipe between uses.
Soak in warm water with a splash of isopropyl alcohol for 15-20 minutes. The resin lifts off easily after that. Avoid metal scrapers — they'll scratch the prism surface. A soft cloth or cotton bud handles the rest.
The prism effect is created by the glass cut itself, not a coating. It won't peel, chip, or fade with normal use. Scratches from abrasive cleaning are the only thing that dulls the finish over time.
For one or two people, absolutely. You can comfortably ash several joints before needing to empty it. For group sessions with four or more people, you'll fill it up fast — consider a larger tray or grab a second one.
