About the Item
1940s French Art Deco Green Ceramic Ashtray with Gilded Details, Four Cigarette Rests
Description:
This elegant Art Deco ceramic ashtray, crafted in France in the 1940s, beautifully embodies the bold yet refined style of the period. Featuring a central circular form with four rounded, elevated extensions—each topped with a gilded rest for cigarettes—this piece perfectly balances rigorous geometric structure with soft, voluminous curves. The rich green glaze, enhanced by subtle tonal variations and a beautiful patina, gives the ashtray a luminous and sophisticated appearance, making it both a functional and decorative object.
Key features include:
Classic Art Deco Design: The combination of strong geometric lines with smooth, rounded forms is characteristic of French Art Deco elegance.
Refined Green Glaze: The deep green color plays with nuances of light and shadow, creating visual depth and richness, while the patina adds a layer of authentic vintage character.
Gilded Details: The four cigarette rests are accented with delicate gilded touches, emphasizing both luxury and practicality.
Functional and Sculptural: Ideal as a functional ashtray or simply as a sculptural decorative piece on a desk, coffee table, or bookshelf.
French Craftsmanship: Made in France during the 1940s, it represents the high standards of mid-20th-century ceramic artistry.
Versatile Decorative Appeal: While originally intended for smoking, today it serves beautifully as a collector’s item, a stylish vide-poche, or even a unique centerpiece in Art Deco, eclectic, or modern interiors.
This 1940s French Art Deco ashtray is more than just a utilitarian object—it’s a celebration of bold design, fine craftsmanship, and timeless sophistication, making it a perfect addition to vintage collections and stylish homes.
