Fancy Pants Soccer Ball
If the drone of South African vuvuzelas is keeping you awake these days, perhaps you can make your way to dreamland by counting the sparkles on this fancy-pants soccer ball. South African jeweller Shimansky just unveiled this life-size piece made of 6,620 white diamonds and 2,640 black diamonds, comprising a considerable 3,500 carats. The ball took three months to make and is estimated at a value of $2.6 million USD. That fact alone is enough to keep you awake at night.
