Mid-Century Ashtray in Brown Leather and Brass, 70s
About the Item
Set of Floor Ashtrays Brown Leather and Brass Mid Century Standing Portable Pair Mid-Century Modern Period Wear consistent with age and use. DIMENSIONS H 20" x Dm 4" or 50 cm x Dm 10 cm There are marks on the seams. As the name suggests, the Mid-century style refers to the middle of the last century, particularly the period between the forties and sixties, just after World War II. It was a moment of great excitement for the world of design and architecture, which led to the production of iconic furniture, such as the famous sessions of Ray and Charles Eames.
Anticipated by the Bauhaus movement in Germany and continued with the American-style interiors, the new modernist current put the new demands of living in the foreground, proposing pieces of practicality and a linear, almost futuristic appearance. Industrial production then made it possible to make furniture in large quantities with a wide variety of materials and finishes.
Today as in the past, Mid-century interiors aim to be visually lightweight, combining functionality and aesthetics. Among the main features, we remember:
Fluid, organic geometries, with clean lines and contrasting textures, to create an airy and beautiful environment to live.
Accumulations of materials only apparently distant, such as wood, steel, plastic and leather.
Elaborate colour palettes, consisting of neutral bases and colour accents.
Great use of stylised graphics and patterns, to break the rigour of modern furnishings.

Aldo Tura Italian designer, from the 50s, inspired by the movements of Art Deco and modernism, creates unique and prestigious furniture characterised by rich materials, sculptural shapes and exclusive techniques. Exotic materials such as parchment and goatskin, combined with bright shades of red, green and yellow characterise his art. Tura favours the use of complex shapes and techniques that are difficult to reproduce in a large-scale production to maintain the authenticity of its pieces. Inspired by Art Deco and modernism, Tura-style objects are always the result of a meticulous process, at the time not replicable in an industrial way, which is why the number of the designer's pieces remains limited and highly sought after on the market, also for the typical colour combinations between materials and finishes that characterise them, often articulated on red, brass, a A portion of Tura's furniture is on display in the permanent collection of the Brooklyn Museum in New York, after being exhibited in the grand exhibition...Category
