Where do you draw the line between usefulness and excess? When does an object that is useful become too precious to use, losing its intended purpose? These questions may seem irrelevant to those that have it all, but for mere mortals like us, it’s an important point to consider when making everyday purchasing decisions. One thing is for sure; no one will question where the visvim Atelier Umbrella sits on the spectrum between usefulness and extravagance.

For those that have it all, visvim has the ultimate in unrivaled extravagance with their Atelier Umbrella. Although not as expensive as $8,000 USD reported by the Wall Street Journal in Japan (as the price of vidvim items tend to double when they come to the U.S.), the ¥390,000 ($3,200 USD) umbrella is still pricey. To get a better understanding the whopping price tag, the umbrella is created by the hands of Parisian craftsmen, made from indigo skin-dyed herringbone fabric over a period of six months. Carefully sourced materials like beechwood and Italian goat leather make up the main shaft and inside cap.

Although the Atelier Umbrella is timelessly elegant and beautiful as an object of desire, we can’t imagine walking out into the rain with this umbrella, but if you can stomach the cost and possibility of ruining your $3,200 umbrella in a storm you can find the it here. And if you do end up purchasing the umbrella, kindly let us know if it was worth your hard earned cash by dropping us a line.
