Vintage Lamborghini Trattrici & Bruciatori Melamine Ashtrays
This is an incredibly rare pair of authentic, mid-century promotional advertising ashtrays documenting the industrial corporate lineage of Ferruccio Lamborghini's manufacturing empire before and during the inception of his supercar division. Molded out of durable white vintage melamine/plastic, these trays highlight the diverse commercial sectors under the brand's umbrella, explicitly calling out "bruciatori" (burners/heating systems), "condizionatori" (air conditioning units), "automobili" (sports cars), and "trattrici" (tractors).
The set consists of two distinct promotional models:
- The Left Tray: A square catchall featuring a multi-colored graphic layout illustrating a classic Lamborghini industrial crawler tractor alongside a heating burner shooting a vivid red/orange flame. The lower left corner displays the early blue-and-white Lamborghini Trattrici shield crest logo. The reverse base is stamped with manufacturer details from Consolini Plast, Bologna, Italy, noting a historical local phone number indicator (
TEL. 340022). - The Right Tray: A rectangular desk ashtray featuring a central raised block partition detailed with green and black typography summarizing the primary factory lines. The reverse base features a molded manufacturer stamp reading Igor, Milano, Made in Italy.
