About the Item

Beautiful large ashtray in the shape of a sunflower, made of silvered bronze, signed S. Agudo, Spain, circa mid-20th century. A rare and original object. The petals can be removed and serve as small, distinctive ashtrays in their own right. The sunflower itself folds open to be used as a large ashtray. This finely detailed item is of very high quality. It is also a lovely and decorative object for non-smokers. It has a high collector's value. This authentic and unique object will often arouse curiosity and admiration among your guests. It is a conversation piece and a true collector's item. Cigarette sales peaked in the 20th century, with people permitted to smoke in offices, cinemas, restaurants, indoors, and outdoors. Once women were allowed to smoke freely, smoking became a social norm and was generally considered an act of elegance and refinement. Businessmen in the 1960s were rarely seen without a cigarette in their hand. It goes without saying that beautiful smoking accessories were essential for your desk or coffee table. This piece is a beautiful example of such a beautiful and decorative, high-quality smoking accessory, which can certainly serve another purpose today. The sunflower is in perfect vintage condition, with only minor signs of age and use, such as discoloration and weathering of the silver plating. This gives the object extra character. The flower still looks fantastic. Check the photos for more details! Dimensions: 19x24x62cm. Weight: 2.875kg.
