BAPE Ape Head AshtrayBrown

Product Description

The BAPE Ape Head Ashtray Brown is a ceramic ashtray shaped like Bape’s signature ape head motif, done in glossy finished Brown. The ape head silhouette forms the wall of the tray, with divots placed on the perpendicular. The base of the tray features the ape head face imagery in yellow. 

Tokyo-based BAPE, also known as A Bathing Ape, is a streetwear brand that debuted in 1993, becoming a major Japanese lifestyle brand. Founder Nigo, a DJ and rapper, was heavily influenced by the 1968 sci-fi film Planet of the Apes, and the brand’s ape head artwork has been a part of the brand since the beginning.

The best feature of the Ape Head Ashtray is its lack of branding, allowing the ape head reference to come through to those in the know. The BAPE Ape Head Ashtray Brown was released on December 21, 2019, and retailed at $45.
