'Bag For Flintstones?': French Brand Launches Bag Made Of Real Meteorites Priced At ? 35 Lakh
The one-of-a-kind stone is crafted by hand and sewn into each bag by the Italian company Semar. The bag also features the Copernican emblem in embossed letters.
Innovativeness is a hallmark of the luxury fashion industry. However, the prices of such extravagant goods come with an obnoxious price tag. Dolce & Gabbana's 32,000-dollar "Khaki Ski Mask Hat" and Hugo Boss's 9,000-dollar flip-flops are just two of the many items that went viral online.
Coperni, a French fashion house, has just released a fashionable bag fashioned from meteorite rock, costing a whopping €40,000. (Rs 35 lakh).
The 'Mini Meteorite Swipe Bag' is a one-of-a-kind bag that features a meteorite set in a dark grey stone.
As per details of the bag on the brand's website, "The meteorite will be individually sourced per each order and can come from various locations, depending on where the meteorite fell on earth."
The bag weighs around 1.8 kilograms and has a total height of 23 centimetres.
Coperni said that because the product was uniquely made by hand, there might be some differences in how it looks.
