{"product_id":"italian-bronze-ashtray-1940s-3","title":"Italian bronze ashtray, 1940s","description":"In the 1940s, many Italian workshops produced utilitarian objects in bronze, often cast in small series. The patina work and the simplicity of the forms give these pieces a discreet but lasting presence.\n\nA single-piece cast bronze piece with four notches. Its organic and slightly irregular form evokes the decorative styles of the period, somewhere between a functional object and a small sculptural work. Handmade or semi-handmade, designer unknown.\n\nThe condition is good. The bronze has an antique patina, with variations in color and traces of natural oxidation. These marks are consistent with its age and contribute to the piece's character. There are no missing parts or deformations.\n\nThe ashtray measures approximately 12 cm wide by 2 cm high. A compact and stable size.\n\nPlace it on a coffee table, desk, or shelf. It can remain as an ashtray or be used as a small catch-all for jewelry or everyday items.","brand":"Treaptyque","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56888717050121,"sku":null,"price":300.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/5290\/4457\/files\/zmmaxwhtpyw1sns3lddn.jpg?v=1773744890","url":"https:\/\/oblist.com\/en-ch\/products\/italian-bronze-ashtray-1940s-3","provider":"The Oblist","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
