Most holiday advent calendars can be purchased for just a few dollars, although some luxury advent calendars have been introduced with premium goods for adult consumers. British jeweler Beaverbrooks is setting itself apart this year with the introduction of its ultra-luxurious Diamond-a-Day Advent Calendar, which comes in at a price of £100,000—yet provides contents worth £123,770 and savings of more than £23,000.
The advent calendar boasts 25 gift-filled drawers in celebration of the diamond jewelry brand's 100th anniversary. Some of the luxurious items that are included in the advent calendar include the Once Platinum Diamond Solitaire Ring—which is worth £26,000 alone—plus the 9ct White Gold Diamond Pendant from Beaverbrooks’ True Connections collection and other high-end diamond-studded earrings, bracelets, watches and other matching jewelry sets from Gucci, Omega and TAG Heuer.
