dsc3451_1024x1024If you are looking for a special gift for pretty much anyone, look no further than one of the luxury robes offered by Telegraph Hill.

The robe I chose was the Chocolate Seersucker. It is made of 100% miccrofiber, and may be one of the most comfortable garments I have come across.

The microfiber was not only great feeling but was a very beautiful color.

The terry lining was the perfect feel without being too thick. The weight is heavy enough to cause it to drape nicely.

This is a perfect choice for anyone who dislikes the bulkiness of a total terrycloth robe, yet wants coverage and comfort.

They have a brilliant website that is very user friendly. If you are looking for a luxurious robe for an affordable price for yourself or as a gift you will not be disappointed.

Surfboards are originally invented in Hawaii.

These were mostly made from the local woods.

However, in recent times the boards are mostly made from polyurethane foam covered in a few layers of fiberglass cloth and then coated with polyester resin.

However, the most costly surfboards are a bit different from the regular one in their price as well as the materials used.

The famous Australian designer Marc Newson created these expensive surfboards.

There were only ten of these limited edition boards were available.

Crafted as a work of art, these exclusive pieces can be used for proper surfing.

These pricey surfboards (yeh, more than most people’s credit card limit) are plated with nickel and are 5 foot long.

These have unique mirror finish polish for reducing drag.

One piece of this board is sold off at the price of almost $100,000.

The famous championship surfer Garrett McNamara used one piece of this costly surfboard that you can see in New York at the Gagosian Gallery.

“Blackie,” Eric Clapton’s favorite mid-career modified Strat was previously the most expensive guitar that dethroned by the latest most expensive electric guitar in the world. At an auction in Doha, Qatar, a guitar that was signed by several rock musicians to benefit a tsunami charity, ‘Reach out to Asia’ was sold. A year ago, the royal family of Qatar was purchased this guitar spending millions of dollars. They donated back this expensive guitar to help the Asia program.

The auction brought in almost $2.7 million USD at this recent auction. Technically, the guitar has generated a total of $3.7 million USD, making it the most expensive guitar yet. Former president of America Mr. Bill Clinton attended this famous auction for the tsunami victims.

The famous signees of this expensive electric guitar included Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, Brian May, Jimmy Page, David Gilmour, Ray Davis, Liam Gallagher, Ronnie Wood, Angus & Malcolm Young, Paul McCartney, Sting, Ritchie Blackmore and Bryan Adams, the coordinator of the project and many more.

MONTBLANC MYSTERY MASTERPIECE

The Limited Edition Mystery Masterpiece, a joint creation of Van Cleef & Arpels and Mont blanc, is regarded as the most expensive writing pen ever created. It comes with the amazing price tag of $730,000! This remarkable pen is a masterpiece of the jeweler’s art in true sense.
Each pen has more than 20 carats of gemstones and 840 diamonds set in a Van Cleef & Arpels patented “Mystery Setting” that covers the stone settings. A groove is made on the culet, the bottom facet of the stone, which is then slid onto the threads of the web like design so that the stones can be held in position side by side without any apparent support.

There are three different types, set with sapphires, either rubies or emeralds, and accentuated by diamonds. To design and produce this magnificent and limited edition work of art it took almost one and half year by skilled artisans.

Have you ever given it a thought that a super expensive luxury toilet can cost you as high as £1,840 or almost US Dollar 2866!

It is the Ultimate toilet for the 21st Century. Stuffed with the most number of technological advances into a small amount of space, TOTO’s innovative NEOREST has a stunning, modern low silhouette. The design results from the abolition of the tank, the incorporation of the toilet, and TOTO’s celebrated Washlet warm-water personal sanitization unit. The pearlescent finish of the lid gently reflects ambient light. This adds sense of personal luxury. The lid of the NEOREST automatically opens whenever an individual approaches it. With the gentle touch of a button on its wireless remote, the NEOREST’s seat rises automatically and a water-saving 1.2 GPF flush mode operates automatically also. When the individual walks away from the NEOREST, it flushes automatically and the seat and lid automatically close.
