Lacquerware Ashtray: Golden Etched Burmade Heritage Geometry Motif

This ashtray showcases Burmade’s exclusive signature design, a modern reinterpretation of ancient lacquerware. It bridges the gap between past and present by distilling traditional motifs into clean, contemporary geometric patterns that resonate with a sophisticated aesthetic.

The value of craftsmanship is elevated by a rare dual technique. Skilled Bagan artisans first perform Yun Htoe (precision hand-etching) into layers of midnight Thit-si lacquer, followed by the prestigious Shwe Zee Yin Htoe (gold inlay) to highlight the intricate geometry. This Modern Circular silhouette demonstrates the pinnacle of lacquerware evolution, where traditional brilliance meets bold contemporary pride.

More than a functional object, this piece offers a prestigious connection to the evolution of Myanmar’s royal arts. It serves as a luxurious tabletop centerpiece, bringing shimmering artisanal warmth and a sharp, modern edge to any interior space.
