Cartier Silver-Plated Catchall with Lapis Lazuli Cabochon Accents
A sophisticated silver-plated ashtray by Cartier, balancing modern restraint with subtle ornamental detail. The circular form is interrupted by three deeply fluted rests, creating a strong architectural rhythm softened by the mirror-like polish of the surrounding surface.
Set into the rim are three vivid blue lapis lazuli cabochon accents, offering a restrained yet striking contrast against the cool silver plate. The result is a piece that feels distinctly Cartier elegant, understated, and quietly luxurious.
Produced in Spain during the late 20th century, this ashtray reflects Cartier’s broader exploration into refined decorative objects and tabletop accessories beyond jewelry and watches. Its proportions and clean lines allow it to move effortlessly between traditional and contemporary interiors.
While originally intended for cigars or cigarettes, the piece adapts beautifully today as a vide-poche for jewelry, cufflinks, watches, or keys, equally compelling styled atop a desk, bar, or cocktail table.

Who Are You Buying From?
Every object here has a journey before it ever reaches you. I've spent years seeking these pieces out, in back rooms of old ateliers, from families who've inherited more than they can keep, through dealers I've come to trust, in conversations with people who still work with their hands, because I've always believed the things we choose to live with should carry something true. What began as a private obsession became a devotion, one I now share with my wife and daughter, who remind me daily that the best collections are the ones built to be passed down, not simply owned. What you're holding isn't just an object. You're inheriting its story, and becoming part of its next chapter.
