All eyes were on a Hong Kong jeweller recently who stole the show at the second China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai. The designer unveiled the design of a gold toilet with a diamond-encrusted seat.
The toilet costs a whopping $1,3-million (over R17-million). It is fitted with bulletproof glass and has over 40,000 diamond on the seat.
The event itself featured other bright and shiny things which included a white gold, diamond guitar.
A Guinness World Record could be in sight for the designer who is gunning to get recorded for the 'Most Diamonds Set In A Toilet Seat', however, we are still waiting to see if it happens.
