Full name: Promotional ashtray from the Jakob Haberfeld Vodka and Liqueur Factory in Oświęcim, Poland Founded in 1804 by Simon Haberfeld, this well-known company was the first factory ever established in the town of Oświęcim. A native of Turá Lúka (present-day Slovakia), Haberfeld relocated to Oświęcim in the late-eighteenth century to marry Jacheta Reider. Their son Jakub (1839–1904) transformed the plant into the renowned Spirit Refinery and the Vodka and Liqueur Factory. The ashtray dates back to the 1st half of the 20th century.
