The luxury coloring set recently released by art supply manufacturer Faber-Castell were designed by Karl Lagerfeld.
Called 'Karlbox,' the coloring set offers a wide range of gradient colors as well as some basic pens, pencils, erasers and sharpeners. The set contains 350 individual tools and is packaged in a black wooden box that contains drawers and other sections in which the tools are stored. With only 2,500 of the coloring sets being produced, the limited edition products are likely to sell out very quickly.
The artistic supplies are offered at the extremely steep price of $2,850 but are likely worth the price for designers and artists who aspire to be like Karl Lagerfeld.
