Dessert-Themed Skateboard Decks

These Boards by Emilio Pucci Boast Colorful and Abstract Patterns

— October 13, 2015 — Lifestyle
Italian fashion label Emilio Pucci released this collection of artful skateboards featuring Italian desserts and pastries. Each skateboard deck features colorful shapes and patterns that resemble candies, ice cream cones and even pastas of Italy.

The patterns intertwine with one another to show a kaleidoscopic piece of artwork on each wooden deck. The collection of seven boards were crafted in a limited edition series. The series consists of two distinct types, the first of which is the street style skateboard called ‘Dolce Vita Aldente.’ The second style, which is a smaller board is an adaptation of an old-school cruiser style.

All of these Italian dessert-themed skateboards are made with specially selected hardwood and boast printed elements. The decorative skateboards feature a printing “technique that guarantees optimum photo quality, scratch resistance, durability and surface smoothness.”
