So, there's this bottle of water. It costs sixty thousand dollars. And yes, it's covered in real 24-karat gold.
Meet Acqua di Cristallo Tributo a Modigliani โ officially the most expensive bottled water in the world, according to the Guinness World Records.
Back on March 4, 2010, one bottle sold for 774,000 pesos at an auction in Mexico City. That's about $60,000. Every single peso of that sale went to fighting global warming.
Okay, so why the insane price tag?
Let's break it down.
First, the bottle itself. It's handmade glass, then wrapped in solid 24-karat gold. Some versions even use platinum.
Second, the design. It's a tribute to the late Italian artist Amedeo Modigliani, brought to life by Fernando Altamirano โ the same guy who designed the world's most expensive cognac bottle.
Third, the water. It's not tap water. It's a fancy blend of natural spring water from Fiji, spring water from France, and glacier water from Iceland.
And fourth โ the gold content. Yes, gold inside the water. Each drop contains 5 grams of 23-carat gold. That supposedly makes the water more alkaline and gives you more energy.
Not ready to drop $60,000? There are cheaper options:
Gold matte, silver, silver matte, and crystal versions go for $3,500
An Ice Blue version costs just $285
And here's the nice part: fifteen percent of every sale still goes to global warming causes.
So yes, it's real. And yes, people actually buy it. ๐งโจ๐ฐ
