Concept Louis Vuitton waffle maker adds a touch of class to the breakfast table

We think it’s safe to say that everyone loves waffles – I know I do, but instead of the regular waffle pattern, how about classing it up a bit? If you’re wondering what we meant by that, then the photo above should already clue you guys in! Yup, pictured above is none other than a waffle maker that comes with the monogram imprints that are famous to the Louis Vuitton fashion brand. Now if you’re wondering why on earth would Louis Vuitton make a waffle maker of all things, don’t worry as your favorite fashion brand has not lost it. This is in fact a concept design by Andrew Lewicki, but what do you guys think? Imagine if sandwich makers could allow their makers to imprint other brand logos on them, like Gucci or Chanel! Not to mention it will probably make a pretty funny present to give to your partner who might have been hinting at a Louis Vuitton product for a while now.

(Note that I said that was only one of the reasons, because others could also appreciate it’s beauty, design, and craftsmanship.) Take, for example, a Louis Vuitton handbag. You can buy one tote for close to a thousand bucks, or go for a functional, unbranded handbag that goes for just a hundred dollars.

If your significant other is clamoring for you to get her some designer goods, I’d say turn to a cheaper and ultimately creative alternative. Like this Louis Vuitton Waffle Maker. (Or maybe just a single waffle.)

It’s just a concept design that Andrew Lewicki thought of, but it would be one of those appliances that would exist because of the novel factor they bring.

You might not be able to afford an LV purse for your girl (or for yourself, if you happen to be a girl), but with one of these, at least you could chew on freshly-branded waffles every morning.
