Description: This Mid-Century Modern “Duk-It” standing ash tray by McDonald Products Co. pairs warm walnut with brushed brass in a sleek, architectural silhouette that feels both sculptural and functional. The tapered wood column rises from a weighted circular brass base, supporting a recessed metal receptacle that keeps the profile clean while providing practical everyday use. Its minimalist lines and honest materials reflect the era’s focus on simplicity and thoughtful utility, making it as much a design object as it is an accessory. The original Duk-It mechanism features a rotating, self-closing interior that neatly contains contents and odors, a clever touch that speaks to mid-century innovation. Retaining its original vintage condition with light age-appropriate patina to the brass and interior metal, it presents beautifully and adds an authentic retro character to any lounge, office, or studio setting.
Fun Historical Fact During the 1950s and 60s, standing ashtrays became a staple of modern interiors, appearing in offices, hotels, and stylish living rooms as smoking culture shaped everyday design. Companies like McDonald Products Co. focused on clever, hygienic mechanisms that allowed users to discreetly “duck” ashes away, which inspired the playful “Duk-It” name. These designs often blended wood and metal to match the clean lines of Mid-Century furniture, turning a practical item into a cohesive décor piece. Today, examples like this are appreciated less for their original function and more as icons of mid-century lifestyle and industrial design.

I was so pleased to find the exact coffee table I've been hunting at Vintage Supply Co. I hesitated to buy it bec they are in CA and I'm in Fl but they had restored it already, and both the price and shipping cost was the best I had found. I'm so glad I did. We exchanged several emails helpful emails after I purchased it, I was contacted by the delivery company about when it would arrive, and it was delivered in perfect condition. I'm really happy with it.

We ordered a chandelier from their site. They were very responsive to emails regarding details about he chandelier, and they were helpful throughout the entire process. The chandelier came double boxed in thick walled boxes and packing peanuts, and it looked exactly the same as it did on the website. We love it and, due to their great customer service, we will likely be ordering more from them as we continue to decorate our home.
