The Gold and Diamond Sink
(IDEX Online News) – It may be money down the drain, but for those with cash to spend, nothing says luxury like a 24-karat gold and diamond sink. The exclusive washbasins are created by the Stockholm-based Luxury Edition & Gallery.
The sinks are rendered in marble or hand-cast aluminum and are covered in 24-karat white or yellow gold, platinum or a combination of the two.
For those looking to go all out, the company offers a version accented with diamonds. It includes one 2 carat G / VS2 brilliant cut diamond surrounded by eight 0.25 carat, E / VVS1 brilliant cut diamonds, all certified by IGI.
But don’t feel like diamonds are the only option, buyers can create their own designs with other gemstones, such as rubies, sapphires or emeralds.
While the company’s website doesn’t specify a price, the sales tag for the gold and diamond sink is believed to be around $80,000.
