Ashtray Large Calacatta

Calacatta is quarried in the same Apuan Alps region as Carrara marble, prized for centuries for its brilliant white body and bold veining in gold and grey. This accessory is as much a piece of furniture as a functional object, an investment in something built to hold its splendour over time.

Split by hand, finished by hand

The bowl is cut on a CNC and the outer edge is then split by hand, the same way the old stonemasons worked, so the raw, quarry-cut face is left exposed against the polished hollow. No two pieces break the same way, which makes each ashtray genuinely one of a kind. Every finishing pass after the cut is done entirely by hand.

Built for the cigar, sized for company

At 20 cm across it is sized for two cigar smokers rather than one, with a bowl deep enough to take the long ash of a Churchill and rests cut wide enough for a 54 ring gauge. The mass matters in use: five kilos of marble will not shift when a cigar is set down, and the stone stays cool beneath a lit foot.

Care

Clean the marble with a soft, barely damp cloth only: acidic and limescale products etch polished stone permanently, and on a pale marble like Calacatta any staining shows most.

Frequently asked questions

Is this ashtray made for cigars?
Yes. The bowl and the rests are proportioned for cigars rather than cigarettes.

Is marble safe with hot cigar ash?
Yes. Solid marble tolerates the heat of resting ash. Simply avoid placing an open flame directly on the stone.

Will it look exactly like the photos?
No. Each piece is cut from natural Calacatta marble, so veining and tone vary. No two are ever alike.

How do I clean it?
Wipe with a soft dry cloth after use. For deeper cleaning use a slightly damp microfibre and dry immediately, and avoid acidic or abrasive products.

Is it handmade in Italy?
Yes. Each piece is machined from solid stone and hand-finished in Italy.
