ProfessionalProduct description
This solid glass ashtray perfectly embodies the aesthetic of the 1960s-1970s, a period when everyday accessories became true decorative objects and glassware readily emphasized thickness, transparency, and sculptural forms. Its design is particularly characteristic of this era. A square shape with powerfully sculpted corners frames a central circular cavity, while four wide notches set into the rim hint at its primary function. The very thick glass flows in soft curves around these openings, giving the whole piece an almost organic appearance. The material creates stunning optical effects. The edges, hollows, and significant glass thickness capture and refract light differently depending on the angle from which the piece is viewed. The ashtray thus becomes a true living room object. Placed on a coffee table, a side table, or a desk, it contributes to the decor in the same way as the vases, catch-alls, and bar accessories that accompanied the new post-war interiors. Today, its shape easily allows it to be given a second life. Preserved as an ashtray for its historical character, it can also become a catch-all, a jewelry dish, a receptacle for small objects, or simply a decorative object, its thickness and lines being sufficient to give it a very graphic presence. A beautiful piece of decorative glassware from the second half of the 20th century, both functional and sculptural. Excellent condition. Dimensions approximately 10 × 10 cm, height 6 cm.
