Art Deco Eagle Head Hood Ornament Yellow Uranium Glass with Black Glass Base — 1930s H. Hoffmann

Product detailed description

This uranium glass hood ornament was produced in Bohemia from original period molds created by H. Hoffmann around 1930. It reflects the Art Deco era’s fascination with symbolic animal forms used as automotive mascots, expressing power, confidence, and dynamic motion.

The sculptural eagle head features a boldly defined beak, stylized eye, and carefully articulated feather pattern, creating a strong visual presence typical of Art Deco animal sculpture. Hoffmann’s treatment of form demonstrates a balance between naturalistic detail and geometric simplification, showing clear inspiration drawn from the work of René Lalique, while remaining firmly rooted in Bohemian glassmaking tradition.

Made of yellow uranium glass, the hood ornament is mounted on a black glass base, converting the original automotive mascot into an elegant display object suitable for interior presentation. Under ultraviolet light, the uranium glass emits a vivid green fluorescence, confirming its authentic uranium glass composition. A refined collectible combining Art Deco design, uranium glass craftsmanship, and historic automotive ornament heritage.
