ASAROTOS OIKOS DISH

Handcrafted of brass.

An homage to the Asàrotos Òikos, or “unswept floor” mosaic of Ancient Rome. Designed for use as an ashtray, jewelry dish, or home accent.

Dating back to the second century BC, this mosaic motif depicts remnants of a rich banquet—decaying fish bones, shells, and fruits scattered on the floor. It served as both a symbolic reminder of life’s fleeting nature, and a sly status symbol in the homes of the Roman elite.
