Arne Jacobsen Large “Cylinda-line” Brass Ashtray
-
Description
Very rare large brass version of the CYLINDA-LINE ashtray. Bring your cigars - they fit too!
With a rich golden patina, this is such a beautiful object. The top rests inside a single cylinder of brass, which spins to release ash into the chamber - an excellent object of functional design. Although you can find these in stainless steel, they were only made in brass for a short time due to the intensity of production.
The story of Cylinda-line started on a spring evening in 1964, at a family dinner at Arne Jacobsen's. Peter Holmblad, stepson & owner of Stelton, had a deep desire for Arne Jacobsen to design a complete series for Stelton. The series was to consist of everything for the home bar, from cocktail shakers to ice buckets and not least ashtrays, which were an essential part of the home bar. Peter quickly found out that there were major challenges in getting Cylinda-line from sketch to final product. An entirely new production method had to be invented and after three years of intensive development, the Cylinda-line was launched in 1967.
