demeyere - Ashtray - Chrome, Bakelite - smoker's foot

An exceptional piece of Belgian modernist design, this parlor smoking cabinet is an emblematic work of the Art Deco period, attributed to the famous Demeyere manufactory, worldwide renowned for its expertise in working with chromed metal during the interwar years.
This all-in-one model served as a luxury accessory in bourgeois interiors, combining elegance and functionality.
Often broken, this one has the matchbox holder always present.
The condition is exceptional to note, the chrome is still as gleaming.
The glass holder and the Bakelite rim of the ashtray are also in excellent condition.
