This cigar ashtray, marked by the Bracia Henneberg workshops in Warsaw, was produced in the 1930s. Crafted from white metal and silver-plated, it features a minimalist, geometric form characteristic of early modernism with subtle Art Deco influences. The round, shallow bowl—measuring 9 cm in diameter and 7.5 cm in height—displays a smooth, mirror-like silver surface, punctuated by gentle gradients and a slight patina. A central handle in the form of a stylized anchor, complete with a defined ring and textured crossbar, serves as both a functional grip and a decorative maritime motif. The construction is robust, and the object remains in very good condition, with only minor signs of age and its authentic finish preserved. This compact piece carries the spirit of pre-war Polish urbanity—where the simplicity of form meets the symbolic anchor, evoking memories of journeys and the maritime inspirations of the era. The shimmering, cool surface reflects light like the calm water of a harbor, while the geometric silhouette and practical detail recall the modernist belief that metal and silver could define a new aesthetic for everyday objects. The ashtray tells a subtle story of 1930s Warsaw, when taste and function coexisted with a fondness for understated stylistic accents. The ashtray would serve well as a discreet accent on a classic coffee table in the living room, but it may also be paired with other metallic accessories—such as a silver sugar bowl or geometric photo frame—to create a collectible, cohesive display
