In 1940s Italy, bronze was still worked as a noble, dense, almost architectural material. This ashtray is a rare example: an everyday object conceived with a formal rigor and freedom of design characteristic of the period.
The piece is distinguished by its organic, undulating, almost biomorphic form, which breaks with strict modernist geometry. The bronze displays a deep patina, nuanced with greens and browns, the result of perfectly controlled natural aging. The cigarette rests, subtly integrated into the design, punctuate the surface without ever disrupting the overall harmony.
With its compact dimensions—12 cm wide by 1.5 cm high—this ashtray possesses a discreet yet undeniable presence. It functions today as much as a decorative object as a table sculpture, placed on a desk, a bookshelf, or a coffee table.
An authentic piece from the 1940s, with a strong sculptural character, intended for lovers of antique bronze, early Italian design and objects with a living patina, full of history.
