This Murano glass ashtray from the 1960s is a quintessential example of Italian modernism, focused on purity of form and exceptional craftsmanship. Hand-blown from thick, translucent lemon-yellow glass, it takes the shape of an orb with a characteristically slanted, precision-cut opening at the top. Its surface is flawlessly smooth and highly glossy, allowing light to dance across it; the color subtly deepens near the rim and base, accentuating the depth and artisanal quality typical of the Murano tradition. Decoration is absent – the design relies entirely on clarity, minimalist silhouette, and the inherent richness of the glass. The thick walls, gently rounded edges, and refined cigarette rest all highlight painstaking workmanship. The piece is preserved in excellent condition, with no visible traces of wear or restoration – virtually in near-original state. This ashtray resonates with the spirit of 1960s Italy: the allure of everyday objects elevated by form and light into small works of fascination. Through the shimmering glass comes an echo of sunlit days in the Venetian Lagoon – lemon-tinted brightness, transparency, and a harmonious shape that embodies calm refinement. The
