Decorative ornament - Italy

Elegant and distinctive vintage table ashtray in the shape of a flower, featuring a refined metal structure with a silver finish and golden tones developed through patina of time.

The design reproduces a stylized flower with six finely shaped petals, decorated with veining that recalls natural leaves and petals. The structure is detachable: the individual elements can be removed and used separately as small individual ashtrays, while the assembled flower becomes an original decorative object for the table.

This is a piece that is particularly representative of Italian design in the mid-20th century, when smoking accessories were often designed to be real decorative and sculptural objects as well.
