Jay Strongwater is an American designer of lavish jewelry, home ornaments and accessories. He has created these opulent tree embellishments modeled after animals such as dragons, leopards and snails.
Each exquisite piece is mouth-blown glass and decorated with Swarovski crystals. The shiny apple is $95 and the prices go up from there--the peacock is $395 and the elaborate dragon runs $495. That's for one decoration, not a standard box of 8!
Implications - FIRST SENTENCE DANGLE
With that kind of opulent price tag, you can bet your shinny loonies this is going to be a treat for the rich and famous. After all, with Christmas spirit in the air people tend to be generous with their spending!
