Dutch jewelry designer Atelier Ted Noten has designed the ‘Dior 001′ gun as part of a series of handgun-shaped compacts called “Seven Necessities” which made its debut at Gallery Rob Koudijs in Amsterdam and was recently shown at Art Basel by the Ornamemtum Gallery of Hudson, N.Y.

 

 

Each faux firearm includes a lip gloss in the muzzle, various pills (including Viagra) in the loading chamber, 100 grams of certified silver bullion in the gun clip, a toothpick and, in some models, a hairpin and a small vial of perfume. The guns also conceal a 4GB thumb drive for snapshots, personal data and corporate secrets… The firearm is made from a 3D printed nylon body with 18 carat gold details. The gun will set a girl back 8,000 euros, or about $11,500

 

 

Needless to say, if planning to encounter any situation in which one’s belongings might be scanned, like air travel, jury duty or hip-hop discos, the provocative object is best left at home…
