Condition
Overall in very good condition. The glass with some air bubbles and particulate inclusions and surface irregularities inherent to the production, and with some minor scuffs and scratches throughout, mostly concentrated to the outer edge of the base, consistent with age and gentle use. The outer edge of the ashtray with two surface irregularities inherent to the production that fade into the design, each measuring approximately 7 inches. The inner rim of the base with a minor fleck. An attractive and eye-catching tabletop piece from Marc Newson.
