24 Karat Gold and Diamonds Coffee Cup

Filed under: Dining

I'm not sure what wealthy person would even want to drink out of a golden coffee cup studded with diamonds (Donald Trump maybe?) but one exists nevertheless, thanks to German porcelain maker KGM. The cup and saucer set has a base of fine porcelain that's accented with 24 karat gold, blue cobalt, and diamonds. Valued at €30,000 the design looks a little dated and gaudy to me, but I suppose as a collector's item or investment piece it's interesting enough -- certainly a conversation piece!

A steaming hot drink is one of the universal comforts of winter and what better way to enjoy yours than in a beautiful porcelain cup in the company of somebody you love? Hermès has a beautiful collection of cup and saucer sets that come in a variety of cheerful and colorful patterns, many of them with a jungle animal theme, and are sold in sets of two so you won't have to enjoy them alone. Or if you prefer your beverage in something more substantial you can always opt for one of the matching coffee mug designs which are equally beautiful. $320-$510
