Electrolux vacuum cleaner gets encrusted with Swarovski-crystals, becomes the world’s most expensive
In order to boost the price of a gadget, what you need is to get it encrusted with diamonds or Swarovski crystals. It’s understandable having a cellphone or portable gadget encrusted with diamonds, as they’re always the collectibles for rich geeks. But it may sound little absurd to encrust a vacuum cleaner with diamonds or Swarovski crystals, as eventually it’s meant to suck up dust.
Whether you like it or not Electrolux has got the most expensive vacuum cleaner here, which costs £13,825 (USD $19,400). This diamond-encrusted Electrolux vacuum cleaner was created as a one-off by Lukaz Jemiol, a young Polish fashion designer.
The vacuum cleaner sports 3730 Swarovski crystals and has qualified it as the world’s most valuable vacuum cleaner according to Guinness Book Of Records. Although Electrolux says it’s one-off, but according to their spokeswomen, they could arrange to have another one made, if you have extra £13,825 to burn. And of course you will never use it to suck dust on your carpets.
