strange...a Christmas tree the way nature made it is worth more than an million dollars but comes for a fraction of it......wonder diamond studded Christmas tree is nowhere close to the original!!

I do love Takashimaya, they do sell a lot of silly items; after talking with a sales woman in their big Tokyo branch, these items are valued as marketing gimmicks. The company can advertise that they are selling an item worth millions of dollars, people make the assumption that other expensive items are worth the asking price.
If anyone actually knew about quality and gems, it is emeralds that should be valued more than diamonds; not only are emeralds are far more rare, you aren’t going to see some company manufacturing them in the next 10 years.
I hate new diamonds, they should have more meaning or a history behind them.
