1960s Kaj Franck CIGARO Ashtray
1960s Kaj Franck CIGARO Ashtray
A refined 1960s design by Kaj Franck, the CIGARO ashtray exemplifies Finnish modernist craftsmanship. This heavy art glass block features a pale yellow-tinged clear form with multiple slot openings—most sized for cigarettes and cigarillos at 7.4mm, with one generous 16mm slot for cigars. Functional yet sculptural, it serves equally well as a standalone art object in a mid-century interior.
Franck, revered as the conscience of Finnish design, pursued the "optimal object"—balancing utility and aesthetics with meticulous refinement. His vision endures; this piece remains as contemporary as when introduced, a testament to timeless design philosophy.
It may have some minor surface wear, but no major chips or cracks were found. Please see photos for condition. Measures: 4 inches x 3 3/8 inches x 2 5/8 inches tall
