I thought it was gonna be some sham… all history. I now see why it is worth that price-point. This technique/style of art is insane. Their patience is to be admired.

this might be the only supreme piece worth paying up for.

Supreme is the kid in you school group task, that doesn´t put in any work, but still gets an A+.

[NickMaddox]

One of the coolest supreme collaborations, possibly ever.

[spicyvro]

No doubt that this is the only supreme accessory worth paying for. Such an amazing art style.

The mine looks like a secret lab from sci fi movies where they produce artificial babies

meissen sculptures are expensive even without the supreme bogo it still would retain a lot of its value $4000 is pretty cheap for a piece like this .
this statue is a very unique piece

The only thing from supreme I would actually buy

[Soreer]

i would love to own a cupid but that retail price is just to much for me right now.

[Privateone]

I woulda coped this if I knew the history and company who made it I’d love to own a piece of their work I’ll be waiting for the next collab for sure

[hotstepper]

Just got mine today! Oddly enough on the day that Supreme and Meissen dropped their second piece, a $16000 dollar mirror! I’d honestly rather have my Cupid statue.

At least it's an art piece, not a damn stupidly flexing item

I bet if you wipe out that tacky supreme logo, the price would be higher.
