Vintage ashtray produced by SAMP Design in the Manade series, designed by Jean-René Talopp in the 1970s. Made of molded, brown-tinted plastic, its design is typical of the era: simple lines, functional, robust, and easily integrated into a retro, modernist, or brutalist interior.
The ashtray is in good overall condition, with slight signs of wear consistent with its age. The brown color is beautiful, even, and well-preserved.
A simple and effective decorative piece, perfect for a desk, coffee table, or as a collector's item for enthusiasts of utilitarian design from the 1960s and 70s.
