Let Them Eat Diamonds
Jewelry.com, 03/27/2008
Gourmet jewels that you can wear and eat. This is no candy-heart necklace; it's a Boucheron dessert.
Who says you can't have your necklace and eat it too? Parisian jeweler Boucheron will mark its 150 years in business with an edible creation that simply must be the most sumptuous necklace ever created.
The jewelry house has teamed up with Parisian Chocolatier La Maison du Chocolat to produce a diamond, chocolate jewel. The necklace features a gold skeleton that is coated with some gourmet chocolate. The centerpiece of the necklace is the 20.08-carat fancy brown tinted yellow diamond that is heart shaped and appears to be resting on a snakes tongue.
La Maison du Chocolat have also created diamond shaped chocolates to commemorate the occasion.
