5 – Jewelled Chess Set - $500,000
Or for the same price, you could always go for a diamond-encrusted chess set from Bernard Menquin. In this instance however, you are at least investing in something that’s a testament to craftsmanship and dedication. According to the manufacturers, each set is the work of 30 artisans who have put in a total of 4,5000 hours, in order to ensure every one of the 9,900 black and white diamonds is nothing short of pure perfection.
