Most Expensive Bag in the World

What's shaped like a heart and will cause it to break when you check out the price? The Mouawad's 1001 Nights Diamond Purse.
This beautiful heart shaped bag caught the Little Bag Lady's eye not because of its adorable shape and lack of coordination with anything in her closet, but because of its decoration. This little beauty is made of 18ct gold, and is encrusted with 4,517 diamonds including 56 pink, 105 "yellow", and the rest colorless. The masterpiece took only a measly 8,800 hours to complete by 10 talented and exhausted crafters. It has officially been credited the most expensive bag in the world by Guinness Book of World Records and at 3.8 million (you read that right) dollars, it's a little too rich for my blood. But if someone else were to be able to afford it and had their eye on it, it'd probably be best to contact them and see if they wanted to solve majority of the world's hunger problems too while they're at it.
