A curved handle inspired by a riding spur arcs over the dish and ends in small round terminals, giving the piece the look of tack scaled down for the table. The interior is finished in fine engine turned guilloche, a tight basket weave pattern that shimmers in the light, which surrounds a smooth, plain cartouche at the center.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade in France around 1960 by Maison Ravinet d'Enfert for Hermes and signed Hermes Paris, it comes from the era when the house commissioned exceptional decorative accessories for the home, drawing on its saddlery roots for motifs such as horse heads, bits, stirrups and spurs. Guilloche work of this quality was done by hand on a rose engine, and the depth and regularity of the pattern show real craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe compact 4 inch round form is ideal as a cigarette or cigar ashtray, but it is equally good as a jewelry tray, a key dish, a catchall for cufflinks and coins, or a decorative accent on a desk or bar cart. The sterling silver has a bright, lustrous finish that pairs beautifully with leather, wood and books.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA refined find for collectors of vintage Hermes, sterling silver objet and equestrian inspired decor.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Collectors Gene","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50457144361098,"sku":null,"price":1410.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0639\/1247\/6810\/files\/Hermes_Sterling_Silver_Spur_Catchall_Ashtray_with_Guilloche_-_France_c.1960_2.jpg?v=1792268654","url":"https:\/\/collectorsgene.com\/products\/hermes-sterling-silver-spur-catchall-ashtray-with-guilloche-france-c-1960","provider":"Collectors Gene","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
