1970s Sittre Ceramic Denim Newsboy Cap – Signed “The Kid” Ashtray / Catchall

Add a dash of playful 1970s nostalgia with this rare Sittre studio-ceramic newsboy cap, glazed to mimic worn blue-jean denim right down to faux stitching and pocket seams. Signed “The Kid” on the underside, the piece was originally sold as a kitschy ashtray but now makes a fantastic coin tray, key dish, or purely decorative collectible. Hand-cast earthenware is finished in a high-gloss indigo glaze that captures denim’s texture and color shifts. A statement piece for lovers of pop-art ceramics, mid-century kitsch, or denim memorabilia.
