This Art Deco crystal ashtray from the 1950s, produced by the renowned Moser manufactory in Karlovy Vary, is meticulously crafted from high-quality cobalt crystal glass. The entire structure is composed of sharp, symmetrical facets that emphasize its geometric clarity—one of the defining features of the Art Deco style. The deep, saturated shade of cobalt blue interacts with the highly polished and perfectly smooth surface, underlining both the transparency and substantial weight of the crystal. The ashtray is devoid of additional ornamentation—its decorative power lies purely in the precision of its cut, the multi-angled faceting, and the precisely contoured, gently rounded bowl. Edges and lines remain clear and crisp, exemplifying the modernist emphasis on detail. The piece is preserved in very good condition, with no scratches, chips, or visible signs of use.The ashtray carries with it the narrative of mid-century modernity, where Art Deco transitions into everyday minimalist luxury of the 1950s. Its presence is a reminder of an era when strict geometry and rich color became the hallmarks of contemporary sophistication. The glimmering reflections dancing on the facets echo living rooms where crystal signaled refinement—not through ostentation, but through precision and material integrity. This object embodies a fragment of Central European history, reflecting both the weight of tradition and the freshness of a new epoch.The cobalt ashtray could be paired with walnut or light oak furnishings, standing out as a striking accent on a coffee table, writing desk, or within a
