If we swo a Mercedes made ot of diamonds, why not a 24 karat gold Porsche Boxster? Yes, why not? The Golden Porsche has beed presented at a trade show in Munich, Germany. The car was stripped o its pain, given a flat primer, and then gold leaf, (a micro-thin sheet of 24 karat gold, traditionally made by hammering gold between two layers of sheep-skin) was applioed to the entire body of the car and rubbed into place, a process known as "burnishing".
The Gold Porsche, which will be followed by a limited edition, was realized by the creative smithy, Bernd Hoeger a goldsmith and artist from Stuttgart, of VISUALIS last year. The VISUALIS CEOs commissioned the artist to gild a Porsche Boxster in 22 carat beaten gold. Piece by piece, the manual work which took about a month, created a real one-of-a-kind as never seen before.
