Another Expensive Item You'll Never Use (or Afford)

July 25, 2007

I have a hard time conceiving of a meal that would cost £100,000 ($205,000), let alone a pot that costs that much. However, German cookware firm Fissler doesn't seem to have a problem with it. Their 11-inch pot is studded with 200 diamonds and has solid gold handles. Fissler is insisting that the $205,000 pot can be used like any other saucepan - only I don't see why you would. That would be like saying you could use a solid gold chain to lock up your bike. It would probably work, but why?!?

what an odd spot to waste diamonds which are so resource intensive to mine on!

That is a cheap pan to begin with. See on the bottom there is a ring all around? That is where they basically weld a chuck of thick metal to the side of the pan. The problem is that it doesn't provide even heat distribution. If you look at the All Clad or any Calphalon, the pan is one piece of metal.

Now that's just silly - but it has a very J. Lo-esque indulgence factor. I guarantee you some idiot in Hollywood will buy it!

Why? That's all I can think of? Why? If I really wanted diamonds on a pot, I'd add some crystals myself! Hehe.

wow that is ridiculous. but to redeem Fissler, they're pots are of excellent quality. my mom received a set as a wedding gift over 25 years ago and they're still going strong.
