Ashtray - Crystal - crystal ashtray

Ashtray in deep green cut crystal, attributed to Saint-Louis (unsigned), a French luxury crystal manufacturer renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship.

Circular form with a slightly domed profile or a pronounced rounded contour, featuring a central star motif with multiple radiating points (likely 8 points or more), deeply cut and faceted to create a brilliant light refraction. This star is surrounded by concentric circles of precise geometric sizes: sharp bevels, grooves, and serrated edges that provide rhythm and depth. The outer edge is finished with bold angular facetting, while four cigar notches are integrated into the design, enhancing its functional aspect.

The ashtray rests on a flat base that provides excellent stability. Its substantial weight enhances its luxurious and sculptural presence.

Precise dimensions

Overall condition: very good to excellent. The crystal retains great clarity, rich color saturation, and very sharp definition of all sizes. No cracks, no chips visible on the edge, the star points, or the facets, and no sign of repair or repolishing. Impeccable presentation, with only the slight superficial wear marks expected for the age and careful use (see detailed photos).

An emblematic piece of mid-20th-century French crystal, blending bold geometric Art Deco influences with a highly skilled hand-cutting technique.
