Jeff Koons broke a record with his Balloon Dog sculptures from the '90s: At $58.4 million, his ten-foot-tall Balloon Dog (Orange) was the most expensive sculpture ever sold by a living artist.

Now he's licensed the design to French design house Lexon, which aims to turn the iconic pooches into household objects.

Their forthcoming Balloon Dog Speaker will reportedly deliver 360-degree sound and be operated by touch sensitive controls and a smartphone app.

A second product, their Balloon Dog Lamp, is fitted with LEDs with adjustable color and brightness.

Lexon says it took a whopping 50,000 hours to get the prototypes right. Now, they say, they're production-ready and will release limited-edition versions of both products this month. At press time prices and specifications hadn't yet been released.
