An ashtray is usually a container for ash and cigarette or cigar butts, but it can also function as a home accessory. The new designer ashtray by Joe Doucet treats this everyday object as a sculptural piece, creating a striking accent for the home or for public interiors.
Designer Ashtray – A Modern Souvenir with a Gold Look
Most ashtrays have three or more notches around the edge to hold lit cigarettes. This design takes a different approach: it has a smooth, circular form with a single pinched rest for one cigarette. The unique designer ashtray is finished in gold, giving the simple shape a luxurious appearance. According to the designer, many pleasures carry their own risks, but "Fetish" can also be enjoyed as an ornament.
24-Carat Gold-Plated Ashtray Design
The materials most often used for ashtrays are glass, plastic, metal, and clay. Silver, porcelain, marble, wood, and even gold finishes can also appear in decorative versions. Joe Doucet’s ashtray is not solid gold; it is gold-plated. The precious finish gives the accessory visual weight while the simple form keeps it restrained. The design ashtray emphasizes clean elegance. It can also function as a prestige object, because at first glance it looks like it is made of real gold.
