ABOUT PRODUCTID 15434
This ashtray, attributed to the legendary Czech glassworks Moser and dating from the 1930s, is crafted from substantial, high-quality glass in a saturated chartreuse green. The geometric faceted form resembles a diamond or a pyramid, with precisely cut edges and sharply defined corners, exemplifying the artistic rigor of the Art Deco era. The polished, glossy surface reflects light with a jewel-like depth, emphasizing the vivid clarity of the color. There are no cut patterns or decorations—visual emphasis is placed entirely on the purity of the form, the architecture of the body, and the glass's luminous intensity. Devoid of any metal accents, the piece presents a distinctly modernist presence. The ashtray is preserved in good condition, showing only minimal traces of use and gentle age-related scratches typical for its time, without any chips or cracks. This glass speaks in silence and light of the interwar decade—a time enamored with clear geometry and the luxury of materials. The ashtray's form recalls Vienna’s salons and Czech studios where modernity meant technical precision and a rejection of unnecessary ornament. Each facet exudes a tension between restraint and richness—its pared-down silhouette meets a saturated, luminous body, as if the designer sought to capture the spirit of modernity with a subtle hint of glamour. It could be displayed as an accent on a modernist dark-oak coffee table, or placed atop a marble console in a geometric or eclectic living room. One
