Description

Author: G. G. Weiner, ISBN: 9781909984219, Hardback, Published in 2014, 72 pages

Twentieth-century French glass designer Rene Lalique was known for his art deco creations of glass art, perfume bottles, vases, jewellery, chandeliers, clocks, and — the unusual subject of this book — car radiator cap ornaments.
Stunningly beautiful and now highly collectible, these glass mascots range in design from a peacock's head to the goddess of speed, from a boar to an owl, from a fox to the King's greyhound, some in clear, strikingly coloured glass, others frosted, some electrically illuminated and all with their Lalique provenance etched somewhere into the glass.

In this book, Geoffrey George Weiner, a dealer and specialist in the subject, looks at each design in some detail and gives an idea of what it may be worth (depending on its condition
and rarity). He also offers advice on buying and looking after these objets d'art that are a joy to own as well as a true blue-chip investment for you and your family to savour and enjoy!
