Glass Ashtray with Metal-Clad Base

Offered by: MA+39

Description
Sculptural Italian ashtray from the 1970s featuring a thick, hand-blown Murano glass bowl set on a cylindrical base wrapped in polished metal. The clear glass top is heavily rounded with smooth contours and integrated cigarette rests, creating beautiful optical reflections. The metal-clad base is designed with large oval cutouts that allow the glass core to show through, giving the piece a refined, architectural presence. Substantial in weight and visually dynamic, this ashtray works equally well as a catchall or as a standalone decorative object showcasing the interplay of Venetian glass and sleek metalwork.
