Default What is the value of a 'Mid-Century' ashtray?

Hello,

I had located a 1962 ashtray by artist "Leroy Benjamin." The ashtray
has a white eggshell-like surface with several bits of green, yellow,
red, blue, and orange spots. There are two inserts in the tray for
placing cigarettes. The shape of the ashtray is a rounded triangle.

What is the value of this ashtray?

Thank-you

specific artist; regarding the artist's ashtrays.

Ok. From my personal experience, never having encountered an ashtray
with a documented sketch by Picasso, the only ones I've seen with any
value are very fine crystal. So, I guess you're on your own. Perhaps a
different group might be more helpful.
