Lewis Hamilton’s helmet for Monaco contains real Amethysts
For the Monaco Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton unveiled a very special helmet. This one was created in collaboration with an artist and contains real gemstones.
Like many other drivers, Lewis Hamilton presented a special helmet this Friday morning for the Monaco Grand Prix.
A helmet created in collaboration with American artist Daniel Arsham. While the dominant color is white, interspersed with purple hues in certain areas, its uniqueness lies not in its visual aspect but in its design. Because these purple hues are real gemstones, amethyst crystals.
