Designed for the outside — for wind, for a terrace, for the particular ritual of a cigarette in open air. The form takes direct inspiration from André Ricard's iconic Copenhagen ashtray, one of the few functional objects that solved its brief completely. This version is cut from premium glass bottles, refined with a cigarette groove and polished to a clean finish. A considered object for an often unconsidered moment.
Objects in the Derivatives Series are fabricated from reclaimed materials. Subtle surface variations are part of the material’s history and contribute to the individuality of each piece. The following terms describe the visible material character.
Great
Minimal visible surface variation. The material appears clean and refined, either preserving only faint traces of its previous life or presenting a newly applied finish.
Good
Minor surface marks or tonal variations may be visible, reflecting the reclaimed origin of the material.
Fair
Visible surface character including scratches, texture variation, patina, or signs of time from the material’s previous use.
