SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES (NOVEMBER 8, 2017) (REUTERS) – A golden toilet covered in leather from 24 luxury Louis Vuitton monogrammed handbags went on display in Los Angeles on Wednesday (November 7) at the newly-opened showroom of online retailer Tradesy.
The piece was created by LA-based artist Illma Gore, who rose to prominence in 2016 with her naked depiction of then-candidate for president, Donald Trump, entitled “Make America Great Again.”
The toilet, described as “fully functional,” is on sale for $100,000.
Tradesy, an online fashion marketplace where people can resell their clothes and accessories, including luxury handbags, opened its first bricks-and-mortar store on Wednesday in the beachside Los Angeles neighborhood of Santa Monica.
