Worried about face masks dampening your look as you step out to shop for essentials? No worries. You can add some glitz to your pandemic look with a blingy, diamond face mask from Israel.
After some Indians went viral for wearing masks made of gold that cost lakhs of rupees, an Israeli jewelry company has revealed that it is working on what it says will be the world’s most expensive coronavirus mask, a gold, diamond-encrusted face covering with a price tag of $1.5 million. That's Rs 11 crore, in case you wondered.
The 18-karat white gold mask will be decorated with 3,600 white and black diamonds and fitted with top-rated N99 filters at the request of the buyer, said designer Isaac Levy.
Levy, owner of the Yvel company, said the buyer had two other demands: that it be completed by the end of the year, and that it would be the priciest in the world. That last condition, he said, “was the easiest to fulfill.”
But who commissioned such an expensive mask? Levy declined to identify the buyer, but said he was a Chinese businessman living in the United States.
The glitzed-up face mask may lend some pizzazz to the protective gear now mandatory in public spaces in many countries. But at 270 grams (over half a pound) — nearly 100 times that of a typical surgical mask — it is not likely to be a practical accessory to wear.
