Diamond Studded Wine Bottle To Be Auctioned.

The Associated Press reports this morning that a bottle of sparkling wine adorned with 49 diamonds will be auctioned off next month for charity, the Austrian company that produced it said Wednesday.


The diamond-studded bottle of Kattus Hochriegel contains sparkling wine from the year 2004 and is worth some $13,200, said Ernst Polsterer-Kattus, who runs the Vienna-based company with his wife, Maria.


It took a Vienna jeweler 38 hours to glue the diamonds to the bottle, Polsterer-Kattus said. He said his wife came up with the idea.


The auction will take place Jan. 22, Austrian broadcaster ORF reported on its Web site.


What happens when you finish the bottle?
L'Chaim!

This blog is fairly captivating. I am glad I found it because I learned something new as I read it. Keep blogging.

Sometimes ago I discovered this website and have liked the info. I look forward to read more content and can surely link to this and inform the people. Thank you.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

Good page, I like how the website looks! The type is good! Hi. Pretty exciting website. I located it on Yahoo. I will definately propose it to my friends. Please keep up the excellent do the job.
