1970s Pressed Glass Ashtray by Georgshütte

A minimalist pressed glass ashtray produced by Georgshütte in the 1970s/80s. Handmade from solid block glass, the piece features a clean rectangular silhouette softened by a subtle organic texture that catches and refracts light beautifully.
 
Originally designed as a handheld ashtray with an integrated cigarette rest, its sculptural form lends itself equally well to use as a decorative object, tabletop accent, or catchall. Weighty, functional, and distinctly modernist in character.
