Abstract: A cigar holder for controlling the burn rate thereof. According to a preferred embodiment, the invention comprises the combination of a housing member having an upwardly extending port formed thereon and a cigar holder member interconnectable therewith. The housing member is designed and configured to be positioned within an ashtray and has formed thereon at least one aperture for providing oxygen to a lit cigar received therewithin. The cigar holder member is designed to nest within the port formed on the base, and has formed thereon at least one aperture that is designed and configured to align with the aperture formed upon the base member. In use, the respective apertures formed upon the housing and cigar holder members may be selectively aligned with one another to define a resultant vent aperture of variable size which selectively controls the amount of air that can access the cigar to thus cause the cigar to burn at a controlled rate.

Abstract: An improved combination portable ash receptacle and saver for cigars with an area for a cigar cutter, 20, and matches, 16, all in a hinged, two part case* consisting of a top, 2, and a bottom, 4, that shut tightly together via a built-in latch.

Abstract: An improved cigar and cigarette ashtray for receiving and retaining at least one lighted elongated smoking article as it burns down is disclosed. The ashtray includes a mechanism for holding lighted smoking articles, said holding mechanism adapted to receive and retain said lighted smoking articles. The mechanism for holding is configured to support a substantial portion of the unburned longitudinal length of said at least one lighted smoking article in a substantially horizontal position.

Abstract: An inclined ashtray rest provides only a slight inclination to the cigar or cigarette being held. Since only a slight inclination is used by the cigar and cigarette ashtray rest, the cigar or cigarette does not need to be significantly inclined above the support surface. Consequently, the inclined ashtray rests may be integrally formed of a single material, such as glass or ceramic. The integrally formed inclined ashtray rest can further be configured with a number of open channels to accommodate a corresponding number of cigars or cigarettes, and these open channels may be integrally formed with the inclined ashtray rest. Additionally, a common ash receiving area may be formed for servicing all of the open channels. The slight inclination of each of the open channels is optimal for keeping the tip of the cigar cooler, by accelerating heat dissipation through the burning end. This is particularly advantageous in the case of cigars, where if the tip gets too hot, the smoking experience becomes less enjoyable.
