My $15 umbrella suddenly looks like it belongs in the garbage thanks to the Pasotti Luxury Umbrellas. Italian umbrella maker Pasotti has teamed up with Swarovski to create a line of blinged-up umbrellas that everyone can love and few can afford.
The Pasotti Luxury Umbrellas are made out of fine Italian cloth with Swarovski crystals hand-sewn in. The handles of these umbrellas are also covered in Swarovski crystals, presumably to enhance grip.
If you needed proof that the world economy is back on the upswing, look no further than the Pasotti Luxury Umbrellas. These umbrellas are covered in luxury but are still moderately priced, selling for anywhere between $280 and $700. While that may sound like a lot, it is actually a lot cheaper than a ton of other Swarovski-covered creations.
