Expensive Tastes

Outrageous Diamonds?

by admin on Aug.05, 2008, under diamond enhanced

A friend sent me these images of diamond encrusted collectibles but has not told me anything about them. I’ll try to find out some more and add to this post.

The skull is by artist Damien Hirst and entitled “For the Love of God”. Valued at $100m so definitely in the expensive tastes category! It was made by Bentley and Skinner, a London silversmith and apparently over 2 kilos (4.4 lbs) of platinum and is encrusted with over 8,600 diamonds totaling some 1200 cts.

    When considering lovely high end vehicles, the Europeans maintain the leadership, thanks to such renowned brands as Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Aston Martin, and Lamborghini. Enjoy luxury, appreciate life.
