When you think about writing a check worth $133,430 for a retail merchant, the one emotion you need to feel is, perhaps, happiness. It is a big figure, and you have obviously chosen to relieve your account of it for something worthy of the majestic figure. Can you imagine a Minaudiere being it? No, not one studded with rare gems and jewels. But such is the case for a particular item at the Selfridges London. Japanese designer Yayoi Kasuma and Louis Vuitton had joined hands to create a collection of handbags, ready-to-wear and accessories which Selfridges London exclusively sold. This collection is the Kusama Pumpkin Minaudiere (jewel bag), which comes at a tag price of $133,430.
It is golden and has the designer’s iconic polka dot pattern, in parallel lines. It comes with a long golden chain and black insides to give it a classy touch. It’s nice. Now to find a jewel worthy of this home.
