Jade Green Ruba Rombic Ashtray

About the Item

The Ruba Rombic ashtray, produced by the Consolidated Glass Company, stands as an iconic example of Art Deco design. Crafted in Jade green cased glass, this stunning piece features bold geometric shapes and symmetrical patterns, epitomizing the sleek, modernist aesthetic that defined the Art Deco movement in the early 20th century. The piece is made using a unique process where two layers of glass are fused together, with the inner layer offering a vibrant contrast to the smooth, translucent, jade-green outer layer. This layered construction gives the ashtray an alluring depth and vibrancy that has become highly prized by collectors and design enthusiasts alike. Measuring 4.5 x 4.5 x 2 in. Please note condition- Chips and flea bites throughout. Known for its rarity, this Ruba Rombic ashtray is a masterpiece that was produced in limited numbers during the height of Consolidated Glass Company’s production in the 1930s. Jade being one of the rarest and most desirable colors. Its angular, multifaceted design—reflecting the influence of modernist movements—has made it a coveted item for serious collectors of both Art Deco and glass art. Beyond rarity, Ruba Rombic glassware plays a key role in the history of Art Deco glass design. The ashtray reflects a significant contribution to the era’s embrace of dynamic, forward-thinking styles and an appreciation for sophisticated craftsmanship. Through its striking geometric form and the innovative use of cased glass, Consolidated Glass Company’s Ruba Rombic ashtray showcases the artistic mastery and bold design sensibilities that defined the Art Deco period, solidifying its place as a celebrated piece in both decorative arts and glass history.
