A STUNNING ONE OF A KIND £82,000 CHRISTMAS TREE DECORATION HAS BEEN RECENTLY UNVEILED IN A TINY ENGLISH VILLAGE JEWELERS. THE ORNAMENT IS MADE OF 18 CARAT WHITE GOLD AND IS SET WITH OVER ONE AND HALF THOUSAND THOUSAND SPARKLING DIAMONDS. IT IS SURROUNDED BY TWO INCREDIBLE RINGS FEATURING 188 RED RUBIES AND TOOK OVER A YEAR TO DESIGN AND CREATE. THE AMAZING CREATION WAS DREAMT UP BY MARK HUSSEY, THE OWNER OF A 30 YEAR OLD BUSINESS IN TITCHFIELD, HAMPSHIRE, HALLMARK JEWELERS. HE SAID: "IT WAS NEVER ABOUT THE VALUE OF THE BAUBLE, WE JUST WANTED TO DO SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR CHRISTMAS. IT WAS MORE ABOUT MAKING SOMETHING UNIQUE, BUT AS WE RESEARCHED OTHER AMAZING BAUBLES WE DISCOVERED THE MOST EXPENSIVE ONE WAS £26,874. WE THOUGHT, WHY NOT SEE IF WE CAN BEAT IT, BUT WE WERE BOWLED OVER WHEN IT WAS VALUED AT £82,000. IT WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC IF WE COULD FIND THE RIGHT PERSON TO BUY IT. BUT IF I'M HONEST, IF IT'S STILL HERE ON CHRISTMAS EVE I'D LOVE TO PUT IT ON OUR CHRISTMAS TREE." THE CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT FEATURES A SNOWFLAKE-CUT PATTERN AMONG A HALLMARKED 18 CARAT WHITE GOLD SPHERE WHICH HAS BEEN HAND PAVE SET WITH 1,578 BRILLIANT CUT DIAMONDS. THREE ONE CARAT DIAMONDS ADORN THE CENTER BAND OF THE DECORATION, WHICH IS ORBITED BY TWO RUBY ENCRUSTED RINGS. IT COMES IN A HANDMADE WOODEN BOX COMPLETE WITH A STAND AND HAS BEEN INDEPENDENTLY VALUED BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF GOLDSMITHS.
