The tyre is presented in a bespoke, museum-standard vitrine, conceived and built for this piece alone. Thick crystal panels, cut and polished to exacting tolerances, enclose the tyre on all sides and give an uninterrupted view of the race-worn rubber and Senna's signature from every angle. They are held within a heavy, mirror-polished chromed frame whose crisp mitred corners and flawless plating reflect the standard of fabrication throughout.

Inside, the tyre rests on discreet clear cradles, so that it appears almost to float above the illuminated floor of the case. Integrated warm lighting, with recessed spotlights overhead and concealed perimeter strips, draws out the texture of the tread, the yellow Goodyear Eagle lettering and the white signature against a deep black backdrop. Above the tyre, the McLaren International Certificate of Authenticity is mounted in its own polished frame, so that artefact and provenance are read together as a single composition.

The vitrine stands on a stepped, gloss-black plinth with a lit base, giving the whole piece the presence of a gallery installation. It is as suited to a private collection or a corporate reception as to a museum floor, and it arrives ready to display.

Goodyear Eagle Race-Used Slick Tyre — 1993 Brazilian Grand PrixDriven by Ayrton Senna aboard the Marlboro McLaren Honda MP4/8Hand Signed & Accompanied by McLaren International Certificate of Authenticity

An artefact of profound historical and emotional significance, this full-size Goodyear Eagle slick tyre was fitted to the Marlboro McLaren Honda MP4/8 and used in competition by Ayrton Senna at the 1993 Brazilian Grand Prix — the opening round of the Formula One World Championship season, held at the Autodromo José Carlos Pace, Interlagos, São Paulo.

The Tyre

A full-dimension F1 slick, the tyre retains its authentic race-worn condition — the rubber surface bearing the telltale heat cycling and wear marks consistent with Grand Prix competition use. The iconic GOODYEAR EAGLE lettering in bold yellow stands proud across the sidewall, with original team markings and compound identifiers still visible.

Signed directly onto the tyre in white marker, Senna's signature is accompanied by the year "93" and the inscription "Brazil" — a deeply personal dedication to his home race, in front of his beloved Brazilian fans, on a day that would etch itself permanently into Formula One folklore.

Presented in a Bespoke Chrome & Crystal Collector's Table

A visually striking and highly evocative Ayrton Senna tribute ensemble, faithfully capturing the unmistakable presence of the three-time Formula One World Champion during his dominant McLaren-Honda era of the early 1990s.

This complete display set comprises a period-correct style racing suit, helmet, gloves, and balaclava, presented together to recreate the iconic image of Senna at the height of his career.

• Vivid canary yellow base
• Signature green and blue banding
• Sponsor detailing including:
  • Nacional

The proportions, striping, and sponsor placement closely mirror those worn by Senna during the 1990–1991 championship seasons, offering an immediately recognizable visual identity synonymous with Formula One's golden era.

Additional details include:

The suit captures the silhouette and branding layout of the suits worn by Senna during his 1991 World Championship-winning season.

Gloves

Completing the set are:

• OMP racing gloves in red with white palm inserts, consistent with early 1990s racewear styling

The Display: Chrome & Crystal Collector's Table

The ensemble is presented in a bespoke low table of mirror-polished chrome and thick crystal, designed to serve as a centrepiece coffee table as much as a showcase. Viewed from above, the full set reads at a glance: helmet, gloves and suit laid out as a driver's kit, sealed beneath a single slab of crystal.

The table:

• Thick, clear crystal top with polished edges, forming a usable table surface over the full display
• Crystal side walls on all four sides, so the pieces are visible from every seat in the room
• Mirror-polished chrome base with a recessed plinth, giving the table a floating appearance
• Polished chrome corner posts and fixings
• Black carbon-weave display bed, setting off the red of the suit and the yellow of the helmet
• Warm perimeter lighting, reflected in the chrome and crystal

The layout:

• Helmet: set upright in its own raised crystal compartment, facing the viewer
• Gloves: laid as a crossed pair in a separate crystal tray beneath the helmet
• Race suit: laid flat across the main bay, chest and sleeve embroidery fully visible, with the "Ayrton Senna" script belt and Brazilian flag along the front edge

Dimensions: approximately 220 cm× 80 cm× 55 cm.

When assembled, the set delivers a near full-scale representation of Ayrton Senna's race-day identity, in a piece of furniture that can be lived with every day.

Condition

• Helmet: Excellent cosmetic condition, with high-quality finish and sponsor application
• Suit: Clean and well-preserved
• Gloves: Display condition

Important Note

This is a tribute / display ensemble and not race-worn by Ayrton Senna. It is intended as a collector's display piece celebrating one of Formula One's most iconic drivers.

The display table is a contemporary bespoke piece, made to present this ensemble. It is not a period item.

Collector Significance

Few visual identities in motorsport are as instantly recognizable as Ayrton Senna's. Presented in chrome and crystal, this ensemble becomes a single statement piece for a private collection, showroom or lounge.

"THE TRINITY": A CHAMPIONS' HELMET DISPLAY TABLE

120 × 60 × 55 cm

Three Legends, One Table

Between them, these three drivers hold twenty World Championship titles and many of the sport's greatest records. Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton are often named as the finest drivers in Formula One history. This table brings them together for the first time in one collector's display, each represented by a significant helmet from a defining season.

The Helmets

1994 Ayrton Senna, Replica Bell M3 Racing Helmet, signed and dated "Brazil"
The helmet is finished in Senna's famous yellow, green and blue design, which he wore from his karting days to his last race. It carries the 1994 Williams-Renault livery with Rothmans, Renault, Elf and Nacional branding. It was Senna's last season, which gives the helmet deep emotional weight. It is signed and inscribed "Brazil," a tribute to the country that adored him.

2000 Michael Schumacher, F1 World Championship Bell Replica Helmet, signed
This helmet commemorates one of the most important seasons in Ferrari's history. In 2000, Schumacher ended Maranello's 21-year wait for a Drivers' title, the first since Jody Scheckter in 1979. It was the first of five consecutive championships with the Scuderia. The scarlet design carries the Marlboro and Prancing Horse livery of the era and is signed by Schumacher.

2019 Lewis Hamilton, Official Bell Replica Helmet, Limited Edition 13 of 19
Hamilton won his sixth World Championship with Mercedes-AMG Petronas in 2019, a step toward equalling Schumacher's record of seven. The helmet carries his white, red and gold "44" design with Mercedes and Petronas branding. It is an official limited edition, number 13 of only 19.

Design and Craftsmanship

The table is built from polished chrome and crystal to a museum-display standard. Each helmet sits in its own crystal-clear display case, lit from within to show every detail of the livery and signature. Each case stands on a black plinth with a brushed-gold nameplate and the driver's national flag: Great Britain, Brazil and Germany. The mirrored chrome frame has clean, architectural lines and supports a thick crystal glass top, so the three helmets can be seen from every angle. At 120 cm long, 60 cm wide and 55 cm high, it works as a coffee table in a refined living room as well as a centrepiece in a collector's showroom or office.

Specifications

• Dimensions: 120 cm (L) × 60 cm (W) × 55 cm (H)
• Frame: Polished chrome
• Top: Thick crystal glass
• Display: Three individual illuminated crystal cases with named plinths and national flags
• Helmets:
• 1994 Ayrton Senna Replica Bell M3, signed and dated "Brazil"
• 2000 Michael Schumacher F1 World Championship Bell Replica, signed
• 2019 Lewis Hamilton Official Bell Replica, Limited Edition 13/19

A Note for Collectors

The table tells the story of Formula One's modern era: Senna's genius, Schumacher's dominance and Hamilton's record-breaking career. Signed pieces from all three in one display rarely appear together. This is both a serious collection of memorabilia and a striking piece of furniture.

"DAS ORIGINAL": A VOLKSWAGEN TYPE 1 AIR-COOLED FLAT-FOUR COFFEE TABLE

Made to order

The Engine That Put the World on Wheels

Few machines have touched as many lives as this one. At the heart of this table is a vintage Volkswagen Type 1 air-cooled flat-four, the engine behind the Beetle. It was designed in the 1930s by Ferdinand Porsche's engineering office, and for more than half a century it was one of the most familiar sounds in the world.

Its layout is simple and clever. Four horizontally opposed cylinders are cooled by air alone, with no radiator, no water pump and no coolant. The result was an engine light, robust and simple enough to be repaired by the roadside with a handful of tools. That design powered more than 21 million Beetles, built from Wolfsburg to Puebla, where the last one left the line in 2003. The same engine also drove the Type 2 bus, the Karmann Ghia, countless dune buggies, and the Formula Vee racing series that started the careers of future Grand Prix drivers. Its principles were carried into the earliest Porsche 356, making it a direct ancestor of every air-cooled Porsche that followed.

A Piece of Art

This table presents the flat-four as a centrepiece, seen from every angle. The finned black cylinder barrels spread out symmetrically on each side. They are topped by polished cylinder heads and chromed valve covers, and joined at the center by the split aluminium crankcase. From above, the engine forms a perfect cross, framed by the circle of glass. At the rear, the machined flywheel with its toothed ring gear shows the engineering in its purest form. A German tricolour badge on the crankcase points to where it came from.

The engine rests on a circular chromed platform fitted with integrated lighting that lifts the engine's contours from below. Four polished chrome columns support a thick round crystal glass top on chromed standoffs. The round shape softens the mechanical subject, and the result sits as comfortably in a refined living room as in a collector's garage.

Specifications

• Engine: Volkswagen Type 1 air-cooled flat-four 
• Finish: Polished and chromed cylinder heads and covers, black finned barrels, polished crankcase 
• Base: Circular chromed platform with integrated lighting
• Columns: Four polished chrome pillars
• Top: Round thick crystal glass on chromed standoffs
• Dimensions: 120 cm x 50 cm / 47.24 x 19.69 inches
• Weight: 55 kgs / 120 Lbs
• Lead time: [add, e.g. approximately three months from order]

A Note for Collectors

This is the engine that democratised the automobile, reimagined as functional sculpture. It connects the Beetle, the VW bus and the air-cooled Porsche. Each table is built around an individual vintage engine, so every piece is unique.
