Ashtray - Large iconic ashtray Keramekos Keramikzz - Large iconic ashtray

Large Kerameikos ashtray – warmly glazed ceramic with a striking spiral pattern

A generous eye-catcher with a strong linear design! This large ceramic ashtray from Kerameikos pottery combines a wide, round shape with a distinctive glaze in dark brown, rusty brown and warm ochre yellow.

The eye is immediately drawn to the center, where a dark spiral contrasts with the gold-yellow background. Along the inner wall, the colors flow into deep chocolate brown. The broad rim is equipped all around with resting grooves and has a lively, speckled finish. Horizontal lines on the outside emphasize the round form.

The ashtray bears both an impressed owl mark on the underside and a gold-colored label reading “Pottenbakkerij Kerameikos – Ulesprong 17.” This combination of brand and label adds extra appeal for collectors of Dutch pottery.

A characterful object for a vintage interior, a collection of smoking accessories, or as a decorative accent on a coffee table. Even without use as an ashtray, the spiral motif remains a strong visual element.

Shipping
Shipping only to destinations within the European Union and only via Catawiki Smart Shipping.

We do not ship to countries outside the European Union. Manual shipping outside the Smart Shipping procedure is not offered.

Shipping occurs only when Catawiki provides a regular Smart Shipping label for the buyer-specified delivery address within the normal EU shipping procedure.

If an address requires additional customs formalities, an EORI registration, tax registration, or any other additional seller registration that prevents a regular EU Smart Shipping label from being created, the order cannot be processed outside Smart Shipping. In that case the order must be reviewed and processed by Catawiki.

The object is packaged carefully and shipped with tracking. The shipping costs also include the costs for packaging, packaging materials, and handling of the shipment.

Pickup is only possible when the lot has an asking price above €50, only by appointment and during office hours.
