Vintage Amleto Missaglia Ashtray

A striking piece of Milanese hospitality history, this ceramic advertising ashtray was produced for Amleto Missaglia, the celebrated Milan restaurant and wine merchant. Its crisp geometric form, off-white glaze, and bold blue typography capture the clean sophistication of mid-century Italian design. Equally handsome as a catchall, desk accessory, or display piece, it offers a stylish reminder of an era when even the humblest tabletop objects were thoughtfully made.
