Bag of Diamonds.


Spending $8,000 on an Hermes Birkin bag is not really something that shocks people nowadays. Birkin bags have certainly always been the most expensive, running all the way into the 100,000s. But Japanese designer Ginza Tanaka just released this diamond-studded bag that is valued at a whopping $1.63 million. The platinum handbag is studded with 2,182 diamonds totaling 208 carats and valued at 200 million Japanese yen, or $1.63 million USD.

THUD! (I just fainted)

Another expensive bag is not something that you would take to any party. Not even if it is thrown by my family. My Royal Family, I mean. This bag's purpose is to be drenched. Something you would never do to your Birkin.

PG Tips celebrated its 75th birthday by commissioning Boodles jewellers to make the world's most expensive tea bag. The tea bag was made with 280 diamonds and took three months to put together. Total cost: $12,900! The tea bag was donated to a charity auction for Manchester Childrens' Hospital in England.
