AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Mid-century design brass and crystal glass ashtray
Elegant floor ashtray or vertical ashtray, made with a combination of metal and glass, typical of high-end Italian or European production from the Mid-Century Modern period (1950s - 1970s).
Central stem and decorative details in polished brass (or golden metal). The base consists of a square plate of smoked glass with a substantial thickness. The upper container is made of solid transparent glass or frosted crystal, with edges decorated with ridges.
Characterized by an essential cylindrical body, enriched by a brass spiral winding in the central part and two stylized decorative rings at the base, which add dynamism to the design.
The upper glass tray is removable to facilitate cleaning and is equipped with a small brass ring handle for gripping.
Total height measurements: 63 cm.
Base Dimension in Glass: 17 x 17 cm.
Ashtray, diameter 18 cm.
Excellent vintage condition, with the brass showing a natural patina that highlights its age and authenticity. Sold as is.
