This week marks the annual Millionaire Fair, this year held in Moscow: home to 60,000 Millionaires and 30 Billionaires (The highest concentration in the world). All week, I will be reporting finds from the Fair on more obscure companies that cater to the super rich. What categories of design are on the lists of the fabulously wealthy?
HENK is absolutely one of the most beautiful rich people’s items I have ever seen. It’s incredbily customizable, richly detailed, superbly functional. Everything is perfection of this suitcase. I really find it to be a work of art more than a suitcase. And at about 20,000 dollars for this suitcase, you may not want to use it all the time. I command you to go to the HENK website to see all of the options this suitcase has. You will not believe it!

[...] 20ltd is a link that someone sent to me, and I’ve been very impressed with the site. Essentially, 20ltd has taken the concept of Design Crack and turned it into a retail business, which, I would like to add, is much more difficult and riskier than simply talking about design. So, 20ltd, I give you props. The concept of the site, to be more specific, is to take twenty items from well known designers that have been curated for their exceptional uniqueness, and offer these items on the 20ltd website for those daring enough to pay the price. Although I will never own one of Ted Noten’s strange purses (shown above) because it’s unattainable for me, I do like to look at well designed objects such as this, and the 20ltd website offers close inspection of their objects. (That was quite a run-on sentence!) At any rate, if you are a design addict like myself then I urge you to browse this site. You’ll find items like the exceptionally rich Henk suitcase which I’ve covered in the past, and a number of items that I will shortly tackle after visiting this awesome site. [...]
