A compact and characterful 1960s French pocket ashtray in aged brass, the kind of thing a well-dressed Frenchman would have slipped into his jacket pocket without a second thought. The hinged lid flips open to reveal a small interior with a beautiful blue-green verdigris patina that has developed naturally over decades — far too good to clean off. Tuck it on a shelf, a desk, or a bedside table to hold rings, a pill, a single match — or simply as a small sculptural object that tells a quiet story about another era. Sourced from a brocante in Avignon. dimensions: 2.25"dia Show more
