A porcelain water lily themed ashtray by Hermès Paris, France, 1970
An elegant vintage porcelain ashtray by Hermès Paris, dating from the second half of the 20th century.
Of square form with two cigarette rests, the ashtray is delicately decorated with a botanical design depicting green water lily pads and a flowering white water lily. The restrained composition is complemented by a fine green border and contrasting metallic detailing around the rim.
The delicate aquatic motif and understated palette give the piece a particularly refined appearance, characteristic of the beautifully illustrated porcelain accessories produced by Hermès during this period.
Condition: in good vintage condition with surface wear, scratches and marks consistent with age and use, including some wear to the rim decoration. Please refer to photographs
Dimensions: 16cm wide, 16cm deep, 2.5cm high
