St. Louis - Ashtray - Glass

Iconic spherical ashtray crafted from thick, solid crystal, produced by the prestigious French manufactory Cristallerie de Saint-Louis (mid-20th century).
A masterpiece of Mid-Century modern design. The full-crystal sphere, hand-polished, features an inclined circular opening that creates the inner cavity. The purity of the material generates an extraordinary "lens effect" that captures and reflects light.
