Some middle-tier restaurants are now stocking stools for diners to place their luxury handbags on.
One restaurant in Paris even stocks Hermés stools that cost almost $10,000 a piece.
Priced at $9,150, the stools are more expensive than many luxury handbags.
"Fine-dining-only service points have made their way into more mainstream restaurants as service, generally, has become elevated across the industry."
Such shoppers are generally more likely to be the target market for expensive restaurants touting their handbag stools.
