About the Item

This exquisite ashtray or small tray, crafted from Breccia marble, is a timeless piece that captures the elegance of the 1970s. The marble features a stunning array of warm, earthy tones—ranging from soft grays and whites to rich rust hues—creating a striking visual effect that enhances any space. The smooth, polished surface showcases the natural beauty of the stone, with subtle veins and variations that make each piece unique. With an outer diameter of 16 cm and an inner diameter of 10.5 cm, this piece is perfectly sized to serve multiple purposes. Whether as an ashtray, a small catch-all tray, or simply a decorative object, it exudes a refined, minimalist aesthetic that makes it equally at home in a sophisticated modern living room or an intimate study. What adds an even more alluring story to this piece is its provenance: it comes from a villa in the renowned Parioli district of Rome, an area known for its elegant, high-end residences and a place where timeless style was cherished. It is as though this piece has been part of an illustrious setting, reflecting the quiet luxury of its environment. Despite being nearly five decades old, the piece is in exceptional condition, with no visible flaws to the marble. The subtle patina of time only enhances its charm, adding depth and character to its design. The careful preservation of its beauty makes it an extraordinary find, a true testament to the enduring appeal of classic Italian design. Ideal for those with a keen eye for unique, high-quality decor, this Breccia marble piece offers a perfect blend of function and style. Its quiet elegance brings sophistication to any contemporary space, transforming even the most casual corner into a work of art.
