We are so excited to bring this exclusive very rare car mascot to the open market.
The rarest and finest of all Demo production mascots. This was a 1934 addition to the range produced, and was originally retailed at 42 shillings, a small fortune then, and the highest priced mascot ever produced by Desmo.
Stamped Desmo to the side of the stem.
A cute size being 8 cm high and 15.7 cm wing span.
In the form of a dragonfly which features beautiful wings which are embellished with mother-of-pearl set on a round stylish black base.
This is a very rare and highly valuable example, also registration number 787192 located under the wing, also having an old auction label lot number 46 on the base.
Incredible fabulous piece for collectors.
The casting is superb made from chrome plated over brass.
Circa early 20th century Art Deco era 1934.
It weighs just under 500 grams approximate.
A dragonfly is a flying insect belonging to the infraorder Chiroptera below the order Donate. About 3,000 extant species of true dragonflies are known. Most are tropical, with fewer species in temperate regions. Loss of wetland habitat threatens dragonfly populations around the world. Adult dragonflies are characterized by a pair of large, multifaceted, compound eyes, two pairs of strong, transparent wings, sometimes with colored patches, and an elongated body. Many dragonflies have brilliant iridescent or metallic colors produced by structural coloration, making them conspicuous in flight. An adult dragonfly's compound eyes have nearly 24,000 ommatidia each.
Dragonflies are predatory insects, both in their aquatic nymph stage (also known as "naiads") and as adults. In some species, the nymph stage lasts up to five years, and the adult stage may be as long as 10 weeks, but most species have an adult lifespan in the order of five weeks or fewer, and some survive for only a few days. They are fast, agile fliers capable of highly accurate aerial ambush, sometimes migrating across oceans, and often live near water. So collectible & adorable, highly sought after by collectors.
