Hermes has released the ultimate indulgence package for Christmas.
The gift set starts with an eight-piece travel collection handmade by a single Hermes craftsman in Paris. The luggage is made from your choice of exotic skins, including crocodile, alligator, ostrich, and lizard. It’s then dyed in your favorite color from the 300 shade range. Hermes will then consult the client and make a bespoke suit, topcoat, shoes, and leather and knit accessories to their specifications. But we’re not done yet. The gift basket also includes a private tour of the Hermes leather atelier in Paris for the recipient and one very lucky guest.
As you can imagine, a gift basket like this doesn’t come cheaply. There are no Christmas sales for Hermes. The package starts from $215, 000, and it could cost a lot more depending on your choice of leather. That price doesn’t buy you speedy service though, as Hermes warns some luggage items may take up to a year to complete. I suppose then they’ll be ready in time for next Christmas!
