Cristaleria Corba - Ashtray - Crystal

Grand Brutalist ashtray in solid crystal – Cristalleria Corba (Italy) – 1970s

Superb and imposing mid-century modernist table ashtray with a brutalist design, produced by the famous Italian manufacturer Cristalleria Corba during the 1970s.

This sculptural piece is distinguished by its asymmetric geometric lines and beveled cut facets that beautifully capture light, offering stunning prismatic reflections (rainbow effect) typical of crystal of very high quality with a high refractive index.

With an exceptional physical presence, this monolithic block weighs nearly 2 kg, making it a perfect centerpiece, catch-all tray, or decorative glass art object from the Mid-Century period.

Very good vintage condition. The crystal shows light micro-scratches from normal use under the base
