Have you seen these?
Swarovski Crystal animals, described as "Soulmates." (Stunned silence? Because, that's some serious weirdness going on right there.)
Here's how the website describes this particular piece:
Soulmates - Stallion
Dynamic and expressive! The stunning Soulmate sculpture captures the power and beauty of the stallion. Elegant sparkles in Crystal Satin crystal on a granite pedestal in Coffee Brown. This impressive creation is suitable as a decoration piece for any environment.
EUR 895,00
That's $1235US.
Are you thinking, "Wait, is that something I'd really like?" I mean, if you are reading this, odds are you are probably (a) a woman and (b) ride horses. So, you might think this sort of thing should be for you, but maybe, and you can't quite put your finger on it, maybe it doesn't really speak to you, exactly?
There are three animals in the "Soulmates" collection: Bull, Elephant and Stallion. The ad copy in the photo above reads:
The Soulmates line offers stunning sculptures and statement pieces. They are perfect for men who want to express their style and taste by displaying a sculpture in their office or home. Also, they are the perfect corporate gifts - strong and powerful.
So, no, it's probably not really for you at all.
Next: Buzzfeed Books; And as I am feeling thematic, two reviews in a row
Pretty sure I could get a real life OTTB "soulmate" for that cash!
