Ah. The finer things in life. Do not be content taking a regular old bath when you could be bathing in a giant hunk of rare Amazonian rock crystal! You heard that right, folks. Baldi, the Italian manufacturer who fields these kinds of things for a living, have taken it upon themselves to their own ante with the appropriately named “Rock crystal bathtub.” The tub, shown above, is a three-person bath carved out of a single piece of rock crystal found in the Amazonian rainforest. The thing was also sculpted using diamonds. Not bad. It will set you back over $749k, but true luxury is worth it.
