Holland Molds Kneeling Pinup Ashtray

aka. H-766 Pinup, Holland Molds Vicious Virgin Arm Raised Ashtray

This vintage piece came out of an estate sale and the seller said it was originally purchased on the big island, in Kona, many years ago. It measures 9' wide by 9' long and 6 1/4' high. It has a beautiful drip glaze blue interior and the wahine and outside of the piece are white. This is a crisp version off of the early mold. This wahine can also be found on the original Vicious Virgin Bowl Arm Raised. In recent years, Gecko has resurrected the mold for this wahine and has incorporated her into several pieces, including his various South Seas Virgin Bowls, Da Pig Puka with Wahine, and Kingstiedye's Pele Bowl. I was thrilled to find this piece. It makes me wonder what else is out there that I don't know about! I've included a shot of the maker's marks on the bottom. UPDATE: Upon further research I've found that the seated wahine was produced from a Holland brand hobbyist mold and I have acquired the mold.

Holland Molds Kneeling Pinup Ashtray

aka H-766 Pinup, Holland Molds Vicious Virgin Arm Raised Ashtray in 1 collection

These ashtrays come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and glazes, but feature the same kneeling nude wahine from a hobbyist Holland mold. The same molded wahine has also been used by ceramicists to ornament mugs and bowls. There is also a second Holland mold of a nude wahine with both arms in air and leg extended used in the same fashion.
