Ashtray

This ashtray is a beautiful example of mid-century blown glass design. The rich ocean-blue colour flows through the piece, captured in thick, clear crystal that catches and bends the light. Four curled arms rise from the base, each shaped with precision to form smooth rests. These curves give the piece a balanced, almost floral shape when viewed from above.


The glass is heavy and solid, with a deep centre that reflects the surrounding blue in soft, shifting tones. The shape shows the skill of the glassblower, using careful gathers and controlled movement to create both function and style. It is practical in purpose yet striking enough to stand on its own as a display piece.
