About the Item
This rare Art Deco ash tray, crafted circa 1935 and signed Nuart, is a wonderful example of the era’s inventive approach to decorative design. Featuring a sculptural elephant motif, this piece combines the playful elegance of Art Deco styling with functional craftsmanship.
The ash tray consists of a black ceramic tray paired and held by a striking green enamel elephant sculpture, showcasing an excellent use of contrasting materials and bold color palette typical of Art Deco design. The elephant’s stylized form reflects the movement’s love for geometric and modernist interpretations of animal figures, while the glossy finishes give the piece a polished, luxurious appearance.
Nuart, an American decorative arts company known for producing high-quality, artistic pieces during the 1930s, is celebrated for its innovative designs that blend whimsy and refinement. The signed Nuart hallmark confirms its authenticity and provenance, making this ash tray not only a functional item but a collectible piece of Art Deco history.
An ideal addition for collectors of Art Deco decorative arts, Nuart creations, or unique vintage ash trays, this sculptural elephant ash tray is both a stylish accent and a conversation starter. Whether displayed on a table or used as part of a curated collection, it embodies the creativity and elegance of American designs during the Machine Age. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
