About the Item

Art Deco Ashtray in Silver-Plated Metal and Glass by Maison Desny, France, c. 1930s An elegant Art Deco ashtray by Maison Desny, Paris, dating from the 1930s. This refined piece features a square, architectural frame of silver-plated metal enclosing a thick, molded glass insert, characteristic of Desny's modernist and functional aesthetic. The design emphasizes clean lines, symmetry, and geometric rigor, hallmarks of French Art Deco metalwork. The contrast between the cool transparency of the glass and the structured metal frame creates a timeless and sculptural presence. 2
