Wenge wood — why this wood? Wenge is a tropical wood with a tight grain, naturally a very dark brown, almost black. Its density (approximately 880 kg/m³) makes it one of the heaviest and most resistant woods used in cabinetmaking. On the Metronome, it provides the weight, stability, and dark hue that pair perfectly with the black finish of the steel bowl — a natural harmony of materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Line version and the Noir version?
In both versions, the base is made of dark wenge wood and the bowl is made of matte black steel. The difference is in the treatment of the bowl's edges and grooves: Line version — the contours are highlighted in silver-grey steel, creating a technical and assertive two-tone look. Noir version — everything is uniformly matte black, without accents, for a more sober and discreet finish. Both offer the same functionality.
What is the difference between Duo and Quartet?
The Duo (20 × 13.8 cm, 850 g) is elongated and accommodates 2 cigars — ideal for a desk or small table, for individual use or pairs. The Quartet (18 × 18 cm, 1.1 kg) is square and accommodates 4 cigars — designed for group tastings and spaces where the ashtray serves as a centerpiece. The Quartet is heavier and square, while the Duo is more elongated and compact.
What is wenge wood?
Wenge is a tropical wood with a very tight grain, naturally a very dark brown, almost black. It is one of the densest and most resistant woods used in cabinetmaking (approximately 880 kg/m³). Its natural dark hue pairs perfectly with the black finish of the Metronome's steel bowl — a natural and cohesive material match.
How do I clean the Metronome ashtray?
The steel bowl can be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth — steel does not retain residue. For the wenge wood base, a dry cloth is sufficient — avoid prolonged contact with moisture to preserve the wood's natural finish. The silver accents on the Line version can be cleaned with a soft, non-abrasive cloth.
