Polished Metal Dove Car Mascot - Mid 20th Century


A charming cast metal car mascot featuring a dove in flight, mounted on a tapered base with original threaded fixing. Likely dating from the early to mid 20th century, this piece would have once adorned the bonnet of a motor car, symbolising peace, safe travels and graceful movement. The dove is well modelled, with outstretched wings and subtle feather detailing giving a sense of motion and elegance.


A lovely decorative object in its own right – ideal for desk display, curio shelves or as part of a motoring or automobilia collection.


Age-related wear, surface marks and patina consistent with use and time. Thread remains intact.


A simple, poetic piece of motoring history with great visual presence.
