Don’t know about you, but I’m considering this thing quite a weird one. We haven’t featured vacuum cleaners yet on Luxatic, but I guess there’s a beginning for everything. The Swarovski Crystal Encrusted HYLA GST Vacuum Cleaner is one hell of an appliance for housewives who respect themselves.
Manufactured by HYLA U.S. Gassmann, Inc., this luxury piece is, according to its creator, the most expensive vacuum cleaner of this sort in the world. It has been encrusted by hand with 32,000 genuine Swarovski crystals and boasts with a shiny black appearance, including chrome accents and elegant carbon trim. The designers have spent in excess of 100 hours to mount the crystals on it.
A modern day, state of the art appliance, the Swarovski Crystal Encrusted HYLA GST Vacuum Cleaner works on Geyser Separator Technology, also known as GST, an innovative system which uses only water to filter the vacuumed particles. Water is extremely efficient at trapping dirt, allergens and dust.
The vacuum cleaner uses air to suck up dirt through a water bath, while a specially designed divisor separates the water from the air, thus exclusively fresh air is returned to the environment.
Yasmine Gassmann, the 10 year old daughter of the HYLA U.S. Importers Hartmut and Filiz Gassmann, is the image of this appliance. She appears to be dressed up like Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s and uses the outfit to present the piece. No wonder it costs a whopping $21,900.
