Vintage Italian Ceramic Ashtray with Brown Glaze and Black Border, 1970s

Offered by: MA+39

Description
Elegant mid-century Italian ceramic ashtray, dating to the 1970s, characterized by a refined rectangular form with softly chamfered corners. The interior features a rich, variegated brown glaze with subtle depth and movement, contrasted by a glossy black border accented with a fine golden outline. Two integrated cigarette rests are seamlessly molded into opposing sides, emphasizing both function and sculptural balance. The piece has a substantial, well-weighted feel and a lustrous finish that reflects the quality of Italian ceramic production of the period. Minor surface wear consistent with age and use. A sophisticated decorative object that works equally well as an ashtray, catchall, or vide-poche on a desk, coffee table, or bar.
