This sculptural piece features a minimalist circular design, with a substantial outer rim surrounding a smoothly recessed central bowl. Cast in solid bronze, the ashtray has a beautiful warm patina that highlights the natural character of the material. The simple yet carefully balanced proportions reflect Wabbes' approach to design, where functionality, material quality and understated elegance come together. The underside features a protective felt base and an impressed marking. Originally conceived as a functional ashtray, this piece also makes a beautiful decorative object for a desk, coffee table or shelf. Presented in very good vintage condition, with a natural patina and minor signs of age and use. Dimensions: 21,5 cm dia, 5 cm height This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
