Vide poche - Lumax - France - Le Corbusier/C.Perriand (attr.)

An authentic, iconic piece of mid-century French design. This heavy molded glass block vide-poche (or modern ashtray) was manufactured by Lumax in France during the 1960s. The radical, minimalist design is historically attributed to the pioneering modernist architects Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand. Its stark, solid geometry serves as a direct, poetic reference to the glass construction bricks used in post-war avant-garde architecture, translating industrial building components into a sophisticated domestic object. Specifications & Features Authenticity: Features the signature raised "LUMAX RECUITE" hallmark clearly visible, molded onto the outer side wall of the piece. The term "Recuite" (Annealed) refers to the industrial thermal process used to eliminate internal stress in the glass, ensuring maximum structural strength and authentic mid-century manufacturing quality. Dimensions: Approx. 12 x 12 x 6 cm (Medium-sized model). Weight: Heavy format, approx. 1 kg. Condition Report Excellent vintage condition: The piece is in perfect structural and aesthetic condition. Minor Flaw: It shows only a single, minor flea bite on one of the inner rims. Aside from this small detail, the glass is remarkably clean, clear, and free of any major wear, cracks, or deep scratches.
