This 6-sided ashtray by Dickota Pottery measures 1.5" high by 4" across by 4.5" wide. The ashtray depicts the Sundogs of Dakota, which is a sun dog (or sundog) or mock sun, also called a parhelion (plural parhelia) in meteorology, is an atmospheric optical phenomenon that consists of a bright spot to one or both sides of the Sun. Two sun dogs often flank the Sun within a 22° halo. Very bright sun dogs in Fargo, North Dakota. Each of the six sides of this ashtray depict the sun in varying degrees. This ashtray is glazed in an orange rust glaze, finished in a satin mat. The clay peeks through at the high points, which really brings the eye to the sun in each panel side. It is marked 'Sundogs of Dickota' on the base, along with its original foil label, so we guarantee it to be Dickota Pottery from Dickinson, ND.  This interesting ashtray is in original factory condition, with the usual glaze nuances, but no apologies.
