La magicien du verre: René. René Lalique (French, 18601945) was a master glass artisan working through both the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods.
The designs for these automotive mascots known as Bouchon de Radiateurs, were produced during the short Art Deco period from 1925 until 1931. Production ended with the ocupation of the Wingen-sur-Moder factory by the Germans who took over the Alsace region in 1940. Production began again in 1947 under the control of his son Marc, and then these were marketed as presse-papiers (paperweights or desk ornaments). Recently re-introduced for a short period and promoted as'Mascottes' from the 1990's through to 2015 and all have now been deleted from the range and their catalogue. Many books have been written on him and his glass etc.But up to now none have the fully detailed information as set-out in these books! This is a (almost) five star review from The Book Guild.. 4.5 out of 5 stars.
2 of the series of books. A new book on the subject of collecting the René Lalique car mascots (hood ornaments) of the Art Deco period.
Twentieth-century French glass designer René 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 peacocks head to the goddess of speed, from a boar to an owl, from a fox to the Kings 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, gives an idea of what it may be worth (depending on its condition and rarity). It's good to know that the author and expert on this subject is backed-up with a Forward by Lord Montagu of Beaulieu and a Preface by Eric Knowles of the BBC Antiques Roadshow. This book is a true mine of information by the very knowledgeable author who was head of the Automobilia Dept.In the early days of this renown. I highly recommend this extraordinary detailed and fully illustrated work that one can dip into time & again, the only criticism is that the quality of the paper (compared to the 1st Edition) could be better. I'm looking forward to any further editions, so well done Mr Weiner. We (my Father & I) have been continually in business from the 1960's dealing at first in fine arms, amour and militaria along with (controversial) Third Reich regalia.
So moving to Brighton in the 1970's and renting various shops in the famous'Lanes' still trading in militaria. Then incorporating old children's pedal cars from an arcade shopping centre in nearby Rottingdean.
Moving back to central Brighton in the 1990's and leasing a premises called'The Sentry Box' in Market Street, in the Lanes and then trading from various other outlets. Gradually dispensing with the militaria and trading in classic car memorabilia and automobilia incorporating Lalique car mascots into the inventory. We would like to introduce you to Geoffrey George Weiner, Auctionata expert in Lalique Car Mascots and Automobilia. Is an expert in Automobilia specializing in fine Lalique car mascots. He has been in the automotive business for over 30 years and previously dealt in arms and militaria prior to that.His passion developed early at the tender age of 13 working for Roy Butler of the famed BBC Antiques Roadshow. His interests are diverse and include old toy pedal cars: he had built a collection of more than fifty. He now runs a collectors' club and Gallery in Brighton devoted to Lalique automotive mascots.
He is also a consultant for the Miller's Collector's Cars price guide as well as their art, antiques and collectibles price guides. He has published several books on the subject of collecting, and is currently writing a third follow-up book on the subject of Lalique car mascots. He has appeared on many television programs and radio shows speaking on his areas of expertise. Weiner deals at this moment exclusively in the artwork of René Lalique (French, 18601945) being the designer of Art Deco glass car mascots, desk ornaments & paperweights, he is also an authority and author of books on this subject. He now feels it's time to'let go' of the mascots so others can enjoy them, and so semi-retire! See the full story on the Linkedin website. LALIQUE COLLECTION of AUTOMOTIVE MASCOTS or HOOD ORNAMENTS.
