This ashtray was first designed ceramicist Aldo Londi, and then later brought to life by Bitossi, the world’s leader in luxury pottery & ceramic art.
This piece was part of Aldo Londi’s ‘ARKitectura’ collection, whose neutral color palette and simplistic design style was a major departure from his previous work.
Made from terracotta and featuring a glazed finish, this ashtray is a rare item from this collection; the black, white, and brown hues are a classic color combination that are perfectly balanced with its square, geometrical design.
Whether you’re a lover of mid-century modern design, a collector of Italian art, or someone seeking to add sophistication to your home or office, this Bitossi ashtray will make an excellent addition to nearly any space! less
