French Bronze Round Space Age Ashtray Flower Mould manner of Roger Tallon Orb
Located in Forest, BE
Unique massive bronze mold / ashtray. This is a cute mold of flower processed in a bronze casted cylinder. The open space is large enough to be used as an ashtray or a decorative object. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Roger Tallon naît à Paris le 6 mars 19291. Après des études d'ingénieur (1944-1950), il est employé par Caterpillar-France et Du Pont de Nemours. En 1953, il intègre Technès, le bureau d’études techniques et d’esthétique fondé en 1949 par Jacques Viénot, le père de l’esthétique industrielle, et Jean Parthenay. Rapidement promu au poste de directeur technique et artistique de l’agence, il en devient directeur à la mort de Jacques Viénot en 19593. Enseignant dès 1957 à l’École des arts appliqués de Paris, il met en place le premier cours de design en France. En 1963, il crée le département design de l'École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs à Paris. Roger Tallon meurt à Paris le 20 octobre 2011. Roger Tallon et son équipe sont auteurs d'une multitude de projets, dont une moto pour la marque Derny (le Taon est présenté en 1955 en 50, 65 et 70 cm3 puis commercialisé en 1957 en 125 cm3), des robots ménagers pour Peugeot, la caméra Sem Véronic 8 mm sans objectif apparent (1957), l'appareil photo Focamatic (1961), les tours Gallic 16 et 14 pour l’entreprise belge La Mondiale , des tracteurs d’aéroports, des chariots élévateurs pour Fenwick, l’image graphique de Fenwick-Aviation, un projecteur de diapositives pour Kodak6.

New Modern Cigarettes and Cigar Ashtray in Black Marble, creator Chiossi Stock
Located in Milan, IT
Tuscan sculptor Michele Chiossi, has found in marble a medium to describe modernity with its myths and symbols, creating the Contemporary collection. An emoji can be a tray; an emoji heart, not necessarily pierced by an arrow, can be a place of creativity in the kitchen, a chopping board or a working surface; a dash; a zigzag; granting the marble a moment of levity, becoming vertical in a vase; reflecting an ideal image of ourselves. Unique objects to be experienced as a couple, to gift to friends, jewels of our daily lives. Time and smoke pass, ashtrays remain. As everlasting as marble, as elegant as a concentric circle of smoke spreading through the air. Chiossi revisits the most Classic of living room...

Antique, New and Vintage Ashtrays

Once a near-universal tabletop accessory, many antique, new and vintage ashtrays have taken on an entirely new purpose in today’s homes.

Whereas these formerly ubiquitous objects were associated with smoking, drinking, gambling and other vices, a well-designed and interesting ashtray is a candy dish, coaster or cocktail garnish receptacle in today’s interiors. But don’t discount its initial function. Amid your carefully curated coastal chic California decor, for example, a stone ashtray can help you manage the ashes that accumulate while you’re burning your morning incense. Old glass ashtrays, which are quite popular and easily found in free-form, organic shapes, can be a purely decorative final touch when styling a coffee table, whether you’ve filled it with wrapped lemon-drop candies or not.

In the postwar years, the democratization of luxury led to an explosion in the number of well-designed ashtrays, and there are many mid-century modern ashtrays to choose from on 1stDibs. (It’s no coincidence that sculptor Isamu Noguchi devised his “Dymaxion” version, which he hoped would make him rich, in 1945. Alas, it turned out to be too difficult to mass-produce.) The design collection of the Museum of Modern Art includes ashtrays by Carlo Scarpa (Murano glass, 1950–59); Achille Castiglioni (stainless steel with spring-like inserts, 1970); Masayuki Kurokawa (rubber and steel, 1973) and more. Smoking declined in popularity in the 1970s and ’80s, after the surgeon general’s warning began appearing on cigarette packs, but designers were still crafting ashtrays through the end of the century (especially outside the United States).

On 1stDibs, browse a collection of antique, new and vintage ashtrays that includes everything from modern and minimalist cigar ashtrays to outwardly ornate Art Deco ashtrays that evoke the opulence and elegance of the 1920s.
