Joe Cactus ashtray in Bakelite, designed by Philippe Starck for Alessi in the 1990s. Two-tone model with a removable, cactus-shaped lid that slides upwards. A playful and iconic object, at the crossroads of functional design and the humorous sculpture typical of Starck's irreverent spirit.
This model is no longer manufactured by Alessi, making it a sought-after piece for collectors of 20th-century design. The Joe Cactus has also entered the permanent collection of the Centre Pompidou, cementing its status as a cult object.
