Description :

Vintage Nedlloyd Lines Solid Brass Clevis Shackle Nautical Ashtray / Trinket Dish – Circa 1960s/70s

An exceptional piece of maritime history and vintage tobacciana, this substantial solid brass ashtray is cast in the distinct form of a functional marine clevis shackle.

This specific piece was produced as a premium promotional corporate gift for the historic Dutch maritime shipping conglomerate, Nedlloyd Lines. It bridges the gap between rugged industrial utility and mid-century executive decor, making it a highly desirable crossover collectible for shipping history enthusiasts and brass collectors alike.


Masterfully cast with incredible tactile detail, mimicking a heavy-duty rigging shackle. The large threaded pin features a traditional square/rounded bolt head and is fully functional, allowing it to completely unscrew from the shackle housing. The deeply recessed bowl doubles perfectly as an office trinket dish, coin holder, or traditional ashtray.Inscriptions & Branding: The front lip features a clean, crisp stamped engraving that reads "Nedlloyd Lines" accented by their stylized corporate emblem.


Material: 100% Solid Cast Brass (Heavy-Weight) 5.5" x 4.5"
