+ ART/DESIGN: GREG HERVIEUX x ATELIER PALOMARES GOLD SKATEBOARD



Greg Hervieux has designed a skateboard deck which I can only describe as utterly ridiculous... ridiculously awesome! Hervieux has joined forces with the people at l’Atelier Antoine PALOMARES to create a custom skateboard deck covered completely in 22 carat gold leaf. Yes, you heard right 22 carat gold leaf! Any thoughts of actually trying to skate this deck should be put out of your mind completely with the deck coming enclosed in a plexiglass box to help prevent damage to the board through oxidation, so forget about even touching it. If you do want to grab yourself one these solid gold skateboards you better get cracking because they are producing a super limited run of five units and each one will set you back €1490.00 ($2145.00 USD). If the price hasn't put you off contact BKRW at info@bkrw.com to order a deck. Check out the full image gallery of this crazy skateboard after the jump.
