Description

The Spirale ashtray, crafted in 1970 by the iconic Italian designer Achille Castiglioni, is more than just a utilitarian object — it’s a symbol of 20th-century design excellence. The ashtray’s defining feature is its namesake: a meticulously designed steel spiral that gracefully lines its circumference. Not just an aesthetic detail, this coil serves a practical purpose, offering a space to rest rolled smokes momentarily, ensuring they don’t roll away or drop ash amiss. Made of high-quality ashtray stainless steel, the Spirale boasts a lustrous finish and remarkable durability, making it as timeless in function as it is in design. Another commendable feature is the detachable nature of the spiral, ensuring effortless cleaning and maintenance. Perfectly marrying form and function, Castiglioni’s Spirale ashtray for Alessi is a testament to the enduring allure of Italian design ingenuity.
