Product description
Vintages Ray Hollis Ashtray designed by Philippe Starck: one of the pieces originally commissioned by the New York Royalton Hotel in 1986. This piece was given to our client by Steve Rubbell, who was the co-owner of the Royalton Hotel with Ian Schrager. Born in 1949 in Paris, designer Philippe Starck has been described as a provocateur, a defender of democratic design, and “a superstar on the French design scene.” It’s said that as a child, Starck slept under the drafting table of his father, who was an inventor and aeronautics engineer. Starck went on to study at the École Camondo in Paris, but was later quoted as saying that he “learned nothing” there and was, instead, driven by his own curiosity. Rectangular polished aluminium table ashtray, diagonal tilted lid, engraved ‘Starck’ Dimensions: 11.1 x 11.7 x 7.3 cm First publication before XO started publishing (from 1990 onwards) it. Included in the MoMA design collection This vintage piece is in a very good condition. It shows minimal traces of use as shown on the pictures.
