Hand carved Marble Nike Shoes
by Marblebee
You’ve heard of being leaden-footed, now get ready for stone-footed! These stylish modern shoes are made of pure Beijing white marble stone: good luck wearing them! They’d be much better suited on display as an awe-inspiring feat in the art of sculpture. Standing at ten inches (25cm) tall, these marble sneakers have been lovingly crafted with every last detail in mind. Everything from the shoe’s straps on the uppers to the Nike logo on the side has been hand-carved by an expert sculptor, and the padding and pull tab on the top have been so painstakingly rendered that they almost seem soft enough to wear! All of this is from pure Beijing white marble, whose natural off-white colouring and beautiful grey striations lend a sense of gravity and tradition to these modern shoe sculptures.
