The “Floating Prism” Ashtray

$595.00

- Not available currently

🧠 Concept:

A multi-tiered geometric ashtray that gives the illusion of a floating core suspended within a faceted walnut prism. It’s sharp, modern, and architectural — like something you’d find in a minimalist art gallery or the lounge of a futuristic cigar bar.

✨ Design Highlights:

🔸 Structure:

  • Outer form: A hexagonal prism crafted from thick walnut end grain with angular chamfers and beveled cuts.

  • Center core: A suspended, solid brass basin — held in place with three slender rods or hidden brackets, so it visually “floats” within the hollowed center.

  • The surrounding walnut shell is deeply pocketed to expose the floating metal core, creating a layered negative space.

🔸 Functional Aesthetics:

  • The cigar rests are recessed slots carved into three of the hexagon’s sides — clean, flush, and sleek.

  • The brass basin is removable and polished to a mirror sheen, creating a stunning contrast with the walnut texture.

  • The hollow space beneath the basin is backlit subtly with integrated LED strips, casting soft ambient light that highlights the grain and form.

🎯 Vibe:

  • Think “Blade Runner meets Bentley lounge.”

  • It’s sleek, sharp, mysterious — conversation-starting sculpture first, ashtray second.

Materials & Craftsmanship
Each piece is made from solid walnut, and no two boards share the same grain, color, or character. Variations in tone, figure, and engraving depth are natural and expected. Laser engraving on walnut is as much art as science, and the organic structure of the wood can produce beautifully unpredictable results. These variations are not defects, but part of what makes each piece one of a kind.
