Wednesday November 11th, 2009 14:09 The World’s Most Expensive Christmas Ornament

Hallmark Jewellers – in tiny Titschfield, Hampshire – has created the world’s most expensive Christmas ornament.

Hallmark Jewellers creates the worlds most expensive Christmas ornament.

Hallmark Jewellers creates the world's most expensive Christmas ornament.

The ornament itself is composed of 18 carat white gold and is studded with over one and half thousand diamonds. Two rings consisting of 188 red rubies surround the body of the ornament.

It took more than 130 hours just to set the gems in the piece.

The National Association of Goldsmiths independently valued the bauble at 82,000 British pounds which depending on the exchange rate is just over $130,000.

All of this hard work and expensive gemstones are not going unprotected. In something out of a James Bond movie the decorative ornament is encased in a special container framed in steel an 6mm thick laminated glass. If the alarm is triggered a internal signal will fill the shop with smoke.
