Rare VTG White Ultima 15 Ashtray Jungberg & Backstrom Made in Denmark MCM 60s For Sale

Rare Vintage White Ultima 15 Ashtray by Beck & Jung for Diverse Ting Sweden - Space Age MCM Aluminum Grid 1960s Denmark

This piece is a highly collectible and exceptionally rare white-painted variant of the iconic **Ultima 15 Architectural Metal Ashtray**. Designed by the legendary Swedish duo Holger Bäckström and Bo Ljungberg (Beck & Jung) in the late 1960s, this piece was manufactured in Denmark for Diverse Ting (Malmö, Sweden).

While the raw cast aluminum versions are occasionally found, the factory-finished white version is an incredibly rare find for Space Age, minimalist, or Mid-Century Modern design enthusiasts.

The bottom features the highly desirable early authentic stamped markings:

* *MADE IN DENMARK FOR DIVERSE TING MALMÖ SWEDEN*

* *ULTIMA 15 / DESIGN: LJUNGBERG & BÄCKSTRÖM*

* *WORLD PATENT*

* *Production Serial Number: 1892*

This piece is in good vintage condition with an authentic, honest patina. As shown in the photos, there is natural paint chipping, and scratching along the base and edges from decades of normal handling, beautifully revealing the dark gray cast aluminum beneath. It is completely structurally sound with no deep metal gouges, cracks, or dents.

* Approx. 5.5" x 5.5" x 1.75"

* Weight: Heavy, solid cast aluminum base with a removable grid top.

Please review all photos closely as they constitute part of the condition description.
