The 'world's most expensive' face mask
Behold, the world’s 'most expensive face mask'
With masks now a wardrobe staple
one anonymous art collector
has commissioned an Israeli jeweler
to custom-make one
from 18-karat gold and 3,600 diamonds
It took a team of 25 artisans to create
and will set you back
a cool $1.5 million
(SOUNDBITE) (English) ISAAC LEVY, OWNER OF YVEL JEWELERY BRAND, SAYING:
"Well, the gentleman that we know from years ago, he lives in the United States, he is a young old customer of ours, very charming, very outgoing, very wealthy and he likes to stand out so I guess this is one of his ways of doing that. He lives in the United States and most probably he is going to use it, I don't know, I don't think he is going to use it going to the supermarket but he is going to use it here and there I'm sure."
The mask will be fitted with an N99 filter
so aside from being fabulous
it will be fully functional
