{"product_id":"rococo-crystal-brass-ashtray-pierced-scrollwork-footed-base","title":"Rococo Crystal \u0026 Brass Ashtray with Pierced Scrollwork Footed Base","description":"\u003ch2\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Inspiration\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing directly from the exuberant vocabulary of 18th-century Rococo, this crystal and brass ashtray captures the essence of an era that celebrated opulence as an art form. The Rococo movement — born in the salons of Louis XV's France — favored sinuous curves, gilded surfaces, and an almost theatrical sense of decorative excess. This piece distills those values into a functional object of genuine distinction: a faceted crystal bowl that refracts light like a prism, elevated on a pierced brass base alive with scrollwork acanthus volutes and cabriole-inspired feet. It is the kind of object that quietly commands attention on a side table or reception desk without saying a single word.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bowl is formed from brilliantly clear crystal glass, its exterior walls cut with precise vertical ribbing and its rim defined by a delicate sawtooth border — hallmarks of fine European crystal craftsmanship. A matching crystal lid, crowned with a handcrafted brass rosette finial featuring sunburst petal detailing, rests seamlessly on the bowl to maintain a composed, closed silhouette when not in use. The base is cast brass, intricately pierced and hand-finished to reveal deep scrollwork motifs — a composition of C-scrolls, foliate curves, and cartouche forms drawn from authentic Rococo ornamental grammar. The entire brass component is finished to your chosen metal tone, ensuring coherence with your interior palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis handcrafted accent piece weighs 4 kg, reflecting the substantive quality of its crystal and brass construction. The visual weight of the piece is balanced — the generous crystal bowl sits in confident proportion above the open, airy brass base, creating a sense of lightness despite the piece's evident luxury. The sawtooth crystal rim, visible from above, creates a starburst halo effect that makes the piece as beautiful closed as it is in use. Available in multiple brass finish variants to complement a range of interior schemes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandcrafted in Egypt\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery piece in the Brass \u0026amp; Wood collection is handcrafted in Egypt by artisans who carry forward generations of metalworking and glassworking tradition.
