Ever wanted to walk around in shoes made out of solid gold and diamonds? Now you can!
Made by British jewelry designer Christopher Michael Shellis, the shoes pictured above cost a staggering $319,460, making them the most expensive pair of shoes in the word.
The shoes, which took three years to make, feature over 2,000 diamonds — about 30 carats worth, that is.
According to Shellis:
“The aim of this was to create a unique form of jewellery which you can wear on your feet. It’s a bit like if you found these on an archaeological dig in thousands of years time they would be regarded as a treasure – a treasure of the feet. But like any great treasure it will remain as beautiful as the day it was created – and we even offer an ‘eternity’ guarantee lasting 1,000 years.”
Apparently, though, the designer’s enticing sales pitch hasn’t managed to lure any customers; no one has bought a pair of the ridiculously expensive shoes yet (even though they’ve been on the market for five months now). Maybe the world’s millionaires have better taste than we thought?
