This floor-standing ashtray from the 1960s and 1970s exemplifies the Mid-Century Modern style through its minimalist, sculptural form and geometric proportions. The dominant visual is a deep, matte black present on the conical body and circular base, contrasted by cool, polished chrome accents on the frame and lid. The handle and lid knob, both made from glossy black Bakelite, introduce a refined tactile and visual contrast. The construction is defined by a slender, tripod-like chrome frame that gracefully arches around the ashtray, emphasizing verticality and lightness. All materials exhibit a smooth finish and precise integration, with visible screw connections at the base. Functional elements include a removable insert and a rotating extinguishing lid mechanism. Signs of authentic vintage use—light patina, minor scratches, and some discoloration on the metal parts—reinforce the piece’s provenance. The ashtray is preserved in very good condition, retaining its original components and finish.This ashtray channels the spirit of the late 1960s and 1970s, when everyday objects were transformed into design statements. The interplay of chrome and Bakelite creates a reserved composition, where every element holds its place, and light softly reflects off the metal surfaces. It is an object that could easily inhabit a living room furnished with geometric mid-century pieces, quietly echoing an era when functionality met visual lightness. Its silhouette seems to whisper: “Simplicity and precision are enough to imbue daily rituals with a sense of quiet
