Stunning, highly collectible Vintage Mid-Century Modern "Party Flower" ashtray. A quintessential piece of 1950s/1960s Hollywood Regency design, this sculptural flower features five individual outer petals that seamlessly detach from the central base.
Originally designed so that each party guest could have their own personal handheld ashtray or catchall dish, this clever piece is as functional as it is beautiful. When fully assembled, it doubles as an elegant, eye-catching centerpiece.
This is an authentic, original mid-century Italian production. Each individual petal is distinctly stamped with the coveted vintage "TAN" maker's mark on the underside, verifying its mid-century Italian provenance and craftsmanship. Crafted in the iconic style popularized by luxury houses like Gucci, this piece features a gorgeous, textured brushed-gold finish that beautifully catches the light.
Whether you use it as a striking conversation piece, a unique jewelry/trinket dish, or a classic piece of tobacciana history, this set is a must-have for any MCM collector.
