An exceptional Italian vintage ashtray from the 1950s, made of color-changing alexandrite or neodymium glass.
The massive, organically drawn form is made particularly plastic by regularly enclosed air bubbles. Depending on the light source, the color effect of the glass changes from lilac and pink to cooler violet and blue tones.
Due to its strong sculptural presence, the piece is not only suitable as an ashtray, but also as a vide-poche, a tray, or a decorative glass object.
