Measurements: 100 x 35 x 14,5 cm. Hammered wrought iron hall ashtray decorated with a stylized bird with long legs on a yellow marble base. French forger, Edgar Brandt was one of the most important iron craftsmen of the French Art Deco period, making the international leap and extending his fame worldwide. He made trellises and lamps for numerous private homes and hotels; he also received public commissions, such as the monument to the First World War. Brandt exhibited at the annual Salons, where he presented a wide variety of non-architectural metal objects, including grilles, radiator covers, lamps or consoles. The 1925 Exposition provided Brandt with numerous opportunities to showcase his work, starting with the imposing entrance to the Exposition, the Gate of Honor. He always had a great facility for combining materials: generally wrought iron and bronze, but also gilded copper and, later, steel, aluminum or the alloy "Studal" Raymond Subes was a follower of his.
