'Smoking Corner' Ashtray
Sublime.
By designer Martino d'Esposito.
Just as you don't have to be a weather man to know which way the wind blows, you don't have to smoke to appreciate the originality and elegance of this object.

I agree, Brian. I know it's been a while since you've had little ones in the house, Joe, but this is an accident waiting to happen. And even if you used little sticky tabs to make it stick to the corner, it's just pretty dull. Now, this one, in Joe green, I would even use for rings, change, trinkets, etc.: http://www.myantiquemall.com/AQstories/viking/dcps9652ed.jpg
And if you insist on something more modern, if I were a smoker, this is the one I would go with (then I wouldn't have to look at the cigarette butts or the ashes): http://www.chiasso.com/store/Item.aspx?from=bestsellers&ItemId=46024&DepartmentId=0&bhcp=1

I've got to differ with you on this one. It's not the smoking aspect I don't like. This just looks like an accident waiting to happen. Does this include a little vacuum cleaner to suck up the ashes 'n butts off of the floor when it gets knocked off?
