René Lalique, France's leading commercial glass producer, made a stunning range of Art Deco objects, from vases and sculptures to perfume bottles and car mascots. He designed 29 car mascots over five years for firms such as Bugatti and Bentley, beginning with Citroen's 'Cinq Chevaux' automobile in 1927. Art Deco in style, the mascots could be lit in a spectrum of colors, the light intensity increasing with the speed of the car.
