Original ashtray from the Pharmacy restaurant and bar in Notting Hill that opened in 1998.
Damien Hirst supplied all the artwork and collaborated with various furniture and graphic designers to produce items of furniture and accessories specifically for this project (it was backed by the PR guru, Matthew Freud).
The restaurant closed in 2002 and Damien Hirst went on to sell the entire contents in a special single sale at Sotheby's in London, generating a sales total in excess of £11 million.
In perfect, original, unused condition, to include two used Pharmacy matchbooks.
