Jacques Adnet Leather and Brass Standing Ashtray, 1950's France

An exceptional standing floor ashtray designed by the renowned French modernist designer Jacques Adnet, dating to the 1950s. This sculptural smoker's stand perfectly showcases Adnet’s signature aesthetic: fusing minimal, clean lines with luxurious hand-stitched saddler's leather. The piece features a striking minimalist frame wrapped entirely in rich burgundy/red leather, complemented by his iconic white contrast top-stitching. Nestled inside the top loop sits a heavy, solid brass removable bowl that has developed a beautiful patina. A loop integrated into the frame serves as a practical carrying handle. Can be used as an ashtray, incense holder, or a catchall for keys and cash. More Adnet available in separate listings Located at our Los Angeles gallery
