Hermès

2004 'Lion & Lionne' by Robert Dallet Porcelain Ashtray

This 2004 Hermès cigar ashtray has the 'Lion & Lionne' pattern by artist Robert Dallet. Dallet has collaborated with the fashion house on many wildlife-themed pieces since 1984. This ashtray was made in France of white Limoges porcelain with brown trim, and depicts a scene of a pair of lions. It could also be used as a trinket dish. It measures 7.5" x 6" x 1.5" and is signed "HERMES - PARIS" on the side. The original leather bottom has been removed and the box is not included, which has been factored into the price. It's otherwise in very good condition with only minimal signs of use.
