Crafted by the renowned french designer Jean Després, this mid-20th century cylindrical metal container captures his signature blend of minimalism and elegance. The container, with its polished, silver plated finish, radiates understated sophistication. Its surface is adorned with a finely detailed twisted rope motif, adding a subtle texture and visual appeal to the sleek design.
Despite its modest size, the container stands out for its meticulous craftsmanship. The seamless integration of the removable lid hints at its versatile use—whether as a humidor, a container for fine spices, or a luxury cosmetic holder. Després’s mark is discreetly placed on the underside of the base, a testament to his commitment to quality.

This piece exemplifies his talent for merging simplicity with refinement, making it not only a practical object but also a valuable collector’s item with historical and artistic significance.
