Despite the unraveling U.S. economy, you might feel like you are not doing all that badly. But do you own a solid gold toilet? The folks at Hang Fung Gold Technology Group in Hong Kong do. The 24 karat solid gold toilet is part of a display at he company’s Hong Kong showroom, which is dubbed the “Hall of Gold,” and contains several opulent handcrafted treasures. The toilet is not meant to be used and is only one part of a larger display of gold items entitled, “The World’s Most Expensive Gold and Jewelry Sparkling Environmental Friendly Washroom.” The toilet is not for sale, although if you really want one badly enough, the Hang Fu Gold Technology Group could probably be persuaded to make one for you.

It won’t come cheap. If the posh potty room were to be melted down today, the company would gross a cool $32 million on materials alone. Labor costs for a new sold gold potty would push that price even higher, and then there’s the design issue. Maybe porcelain isn’t so bad after all.

The Golden House is a new tourist attraction in Hong Kong. Apparently, it is modeled after an ancient palace, or perhaps is meant to be a composite of a variety of estates, but the most notable thing about it is that it was built from 2 tons of gold. The structure is gilded from its high ceilings and door frames right down to tableware and toilet seats. It cost about $38 million dollars to construct and is also available to be used for weddings.

Recently, we read about Elivision’s door embedded with 17-inch LCD display, but if you prefer an elegant touch over a sci-fi feel, then these leather clad doors built with Murano glass and, 24 carat gold and crystallized Swarovski elements are rich enough for King Midas’s palace. Designed by Sara Valentina in association with Tonini Serramenti, this new collection of “Olympus” is a real tribute to the divine lifestyle. Each glass in the door is a single piece, as built individually by hand, and is certified by a guarantee of originality and craftsmanship. Olympus is the name of mythological mountain of the gods, and Gea, Hebe, Hera, Demeter, Dione, Kore, Ecate, Leth, Artemide, are the names of goddesses allocated to these models.
