Lobsters are already a popular luxury item at top restaurants, and usually diners can expect to pay something a bit about the market price per pound for that day. A $740 per pound lobster is in an entirely different league. Fortunately, if you splurge on this crustacean, you'll be able to enjoy it for more than a meal since it is made of glass. The lobster has silver antennae and was hand-formed to be as true to the look of a real lobster as possible by artist Taf Lebel Schaefer. It measures 11.75"x6.625". Price: $3,700.
