The most expensive bed in the world
By Paul Johnson on Feb 16, 2011 in Travel Miscellany
The Baldacchino Supreme is being billed as the world’s most expensive bed. A collaboration between Stuart Hughes of Liverpool, UK and HEBANON by F.lli Basile Interiors of Nocera Superiore Italy Lacquered has resulted in a handmade bed inlaid with 107kg (236lb) of 24 karat gold, fashioned out of chestnut and ash wood with a cherry wood canopy. It also comes complete with Italian silk and cotton drapes and the headboard can be customized to take diamonds for that hint of extra bling. And all this can be yours for just $6.5 million.
