Attention to detail in the crafting process is evident in the smoothness of the interior and the precision of the grooves, ensuring a comfortable and safe use.

MATERIALS

The ashtray is made of authentic travertine marble, a material known for its durability and natural beauty. Travertine has a porous texture and a neutral color, making it versatile and easy to match with different décor styles. Additionally, marble is heat-resistant, making it ideal for use as an ashtray. Cleaning is simple, requiring just a damp cloth to remove ash or dirt, keeping it looking pristine.

Travertine marble is a natural stone of sedimentary origin, primarily composed of calcium carbonate deposits that precipitate from water, typically in environments such as hot springs, caves, or rivers. This rock, known for its porous texture and unique appearance, comes in a range of colors from white and cream to shades of brown, gold, and reddish hues, depending on the mineral impurities present during its formation. Its name derives from the term "lapis tiburtinus," referring to the city of Tibur, now known as Tivoli, near Rome, where the Romans have extracted this stone since ancient times.

Travertine is appreciated for its versatility and unique characteristics, such as its porous texture and resistance to extreme weather conditions, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. This stone is lighter and easier to work with than other types of marble, allowing its use in a wide range of architectural applications, from decorative elements to monumental structures. Travertine marble is particularly famous for its use in the Roman Colosseum, the Spanish Steps, and many other iconic constructions of Roman and Renaissance architecture.

The extraction process begins with geological surveys to determine the quality and extent of the deposits, followed by the removal of the surface material and the extraction of blocks using controlled drilling and explosives. The extracted travertine is then transported to processing facilities where it is cut into slabs and subjected to various finishes, such as polished, honed, or aged, which enhance its natural beauty and versatility.
