About the Item

Max Le Verrier “PLEIN GAZ” – Art Deco Paperweight & Radiator Mascot A tribute to speed, precision, and the golden age of motoring, “PLEIN GAZ” – French for “Full Throttle” – captures the intense focus and aerodynamic elegance of the 1920s. Originally designed by renowned French sculptor Max Le Verrier, this striking Art Deco piece is both a collector’s radiator mascot and a sophisticated desk accessory. Handcrafted in the Max Le Verrier atelier in Paris during the 2020s, this edition stays true to the sculptor’s original 1920s vision. The bust of a driver, stylized in that unmistakable geometric Art Deco fashion, is portrayed with a stern, forward-leaning expression — a symbol of control, concentration, and the era’s infatuation with motion and modernity. Resting on a sleek black marble base, the figure is cast in régule (spelter) with a distinctive green patina, applied by hand for a finish rich in character and depth. A Gift of Style and Passion Whether you’re shopping for a motorsport enthusiast, a classic car lover, or treating yourself to a piece of decorative history, PLEIN GAZ makes an unforgettable statement. As a paperweight, it anchors your workspace with vintage flair and purpose. As a sculpture, it channels the romance of early racing and the artistry of French design.
