Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Designed primarily during the 1920s and 1930s, glass car mascots were decorative radiator bonnet ornaments mounted on luxury automobiles, popularized by designers such as Rene Lalique as symbols of speed and style.

They were produced using press-moulded glass or demi-crystal, utilizing contrasting polished and frosted surfaces to accentuate sculptural depth and hand-finished anatomical details.

Authentic pieces generally feature moulded or acid-etched period signatures such as R. LALIQUE, precise relief moulding, correct weight and proportions, and evidence of mounting wear appropriate to its age.

These sculptural glass objects are frequently displayed on an office desk, styled within a glazed bookcase, or positioned on a mantlepiece where light can illuminate the frosted detail.

Wash gently with warm water and mild liquid soap using a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleansers or abrasive materials that could alter the frosted surface finish.
