A pivotally mountable ash tray comprising:
- an ash container for receiving and supporting ashes and smoking materials;
- a pivotal mounting means pivotally secured to the ash container and engagable to a support object for supporting the ash container in a substantially vertical orientation relative to the support;
- wherein the pivotal mounting means comprises a substantially U-Shaped clip having a pivot pin projecting therefrom, the pivot pin being rotatably coupled to the ash container such that the U-shaped clip extends substantially in a spaced relationship relative to an outer exterior of the ash container, wherein the U-shaped clip can be fictionally engaged to a support object so as to support the ash container depending therefrom;
- wherein the ash container comprises a lower hemi-spherical member to which the pivotal mounting means is pivotally coupled;
- an upper hemi-spherical member pivotally mounted to the lower hemi-shperical member;
- a latah coupled to the ash container for maintaining the upper hemi-spherical member in a closed configuration relative to the lower hemi-spherical member;
