Smoking may have gone out of style, but for those smokers still puffing away (and non-smokers around them) this may be the best idea since the ash tray.

Flussocreativo did not do much to make it work: they simply shifted the wicks of candles to one side (rather than the center) within a series of candles, and created slight rim around the edge as well.

As a result, though, a pool for wax forms freely in the middle (away from the flame), where a cigarette (or cigar) can be ashed or doused entirely, putting a quick stop to remaining smoke and snuffing some residual odors as well.

No joke intended: there is a refreshing honesty and openness to this concept – rather than burying butts in a too-fancy container that does little to block smells (only disguising them from view), these remnants are left visible, but their more noxious side effects (such as second-hand smells) are conveniently lessened.

More from the designers

“The wick is positioned along the perimeter in the central indentation. Once started, the light takes a circular route following the inner circumference of candle in order to dissolve both paraffin and the look of one who, kidnapped by the enchantment of fire, stopped to observe its movement.”

“During its hypnotic and suggestive run, the wick melts the wax forming a liquid pool able to hold ashes, foul odor and in which off the butts. VIZIO becomes an opportunity to enjoy the habit of a cigarette together, surrounded by a warm and friendly feel. We all agree, smoking is a habit that would be harmful to health; it is better not to smoke.”

“But those who want the old pleasure of a cigarette, especially together, especially if you need to accompany a moment of relax and reflection, VIZIO will be a useful accessory. Vizio is self-produced and distributed by Flussocreativo.”
