Italian Ashtray Vide Poche Pink Alabaster 1960s Smoking item
About the Item
Beautiful and high-quality ashtray, made from hand-carved pink alabaster with black and grayish veins, probably by Romano Bianchi, Italy, 1960s, marked at the bottom.
This beautiful object can of course also be used for other purposes, such as a vide poche or trinket jar.
Cigarette sales peaked in the 20th century, people were allowed to smoke in the office, in the cinema, in restaurants, indoors and outdoors. Once women could smoke freely, smoking became a social norm and was generally considered an act of elegance and refinement. Businessmen in the 1960s were rarely seen without a cigarette in their hand.
It goes without saying that you needed beautiful smoking accessories on your desk or coffee table. This object is a good example of such a very beautiful and decorative smoking accessory of high quality, which can certainly also have another function today.
In perfect vintage condition, no cracks, breaks or chips, check the photos for more details!
