This elegant Bauhaus-style table ashtray from 30s Germany is attributed to Marianne Brandt. Its minimalist, functional design follows the clear formal language of Bauhaus modernism, combining objective geometry with a high-quality material effect. The ashtray is crafted from highly polished metal and features a storage depression harmoniously integrated into the design. The reflective surface highlights the precise, unadorned form while lending the object an elegant presence. A characteristic example of avant-garde German metalwork from the interwar period, it is a tabletop object that is as functional as it is sculptural.

Recommendation for buying vintage furniture.
A design furniture piece from that era is different from a reproduction.
The furniture was perfect in our booth — we will always rent with you when we are in Basel!
