Art Deco Nude Female Hood Ornament Uranium Glass with Black Glass Base — 1930s H. Hoffmann

Product detailed description

This Art Deco nude female hood ornament was produced in Bohemia from original molds designed by H. Hoffmann around 1930 and was intended as an automotive car mascot. It reflects a period when sculptural hood ornaments played a key role in defining the style, prestige, and identity of luxury automobiles.

The design follows the broader French Art Deco aesthetic that shaped European automotive ornament design in the early 20th century. Hoffmann’s sculptural approach shows clear inspiration from the work of René Lalique, particularly in the flowing lines, balanced proportions, and refined modeling of the female figure.

Made of yellow uranium glass, the piece displays a strong green glow under UV light, confirming its uranium glass composition. This example is mounted on a black glass base, which enhances its presentation and stability. A desirable collectible for enthusiasts of Art Deco design, uranium glass, and historic automotive car mascots.
