AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A unique and essential collector's item: this superb modernist trinket tray or ashtray, hand-carved from a single block of exceptionally high-quality natural travertine.
Combining the geometric rigor of 1970s design with the sensuality of raw materials, this object perfectly embodies the essence of Modern Regency style and Mediterranean design.
It's the kind of rare object that instantly elevates a room and captivates all who see it.
Rarity and authenticity abound; unlike mass-produced items, every vein, every imperfection, and every nuance of this organic stone tells a story. A specimen of this architectural purity is rarely found on the market.
A magnificent and timeless design, its clean rectangular lines contrasted by its central circular cavity and sculpted notches create a striking interplay of light and shadow. It represents the perfect balance between brutalist minimalism and timeless elegance.
Exceptionally versatile, originally designed as a high-end architect's ashtray, it easily transforms into a sumptuous catch-all for your watches, jewelry, or keys on an entryway console, a designer desk, or a living room coffee table.
A sure bet in interior design, it integrates masterfully into all discerning interiors (Wabi-Sabi, Contemporary, 70s Vintage, or Mid-Century). The noble travertine radiates an incomparable mineral warmth.
Material: Solid natural travertine (superb patina, robust and steeped in history).
Condition: Good overall condition (see photos to appreciate the patina and authentic details of the stone).
