hanging_fireplace_kaouo_12If there is one thing that people who have money are proud of … it is their homes.  Personally, I would love to have a home that looks beautiful inside and out and one thing that I caught sight of on the internet is the floating fireplace from Stephane Perruchon.  Now, Stephane Perruchon is a designer that truly knows what they are doing when they are creating something so beautiful and so interesting.  This particular eco-friendly design for the fireplace is something that is so awesome and pretty … you almost never want to leave it!

Also, if a circle is not the shape that you are looking for, Stephane Perruchon has actually created many different shapes and you can get anything from a square all the way to a hexagonal, which is something that is pretty interesting to look at!  While there is no current pricing on this particular fireplace, I can promise that as soon as it comes through, I will let you know!

Just remember that Stephane Perruchon is the designer and the fireplace is the hanging on!

If You Love Johnnie Walker, Try John Walker

the-john-walkerFor years, Johnnie Walker has, in its various forms, been an extremely popular brand of liquor — but for those with more expensive, more luxurious, and more exclusive tastes, there is now The John Walker blend of whiskey. It is an extremely expensive drink, going for about three thousand dollars duty free — but according to Diageo, the whiskey is more than worth the price.

This is partly because it is made from a small and exclusive number of very rare whiskeys which have been taken from distilleries from all the way back in the 1800s. There are six malt whiskeys and three grain whiskeys within the new John Walker drink.

The very first bottle is especially special, because it features the signature of Jim Beveridge, a Master Blender; it will be sold at an auction.

Whiskey lovers can look for The John Walker brand to launch in September of this year.

Chestnuts Roasting on a Widescreen Fire

Posted in Luxury on June 16th, 2009

wodtke_fire_sl_fireplace1There is nothing quite like a warmth emitting, pleasantly warming fire — but having a wood burning fireplace these days is something of a concern for many of us. Heating that way isn’t really economically sound, and no one wants to be responsible for eradicating trees or anything.

However, if you really don’t want to give up the pleasures of having a fire in your living room — or bedroom, or sitting room, or any room, really — think about the Wodtke Fire SL. It splays itself acoss a 16:9 widescreen and is surrounded by glass ceramic around the framing panel.

And this will actually warm up the room. It sits on a base which connects to your home’s central air supply and rotates to different angles. It puts out 8 kW of heat and you have the option of an air wash system and thermo control. It can all be yours if you can afford $6,800.

vertu-ascent-ti-damascus-steel_jnrxp_48Now that we have talked about Yacht’s, let’s take a trip over to cell phones; as there are a ton of different luxury cell phones available like the Vertu phone.  This phone is honestly cool as hell and it is actually made of Damascus steel.  This steel is forged in the way that the ancient steel back in the day was forged and honestly, I think that this phone looks freakin’ cool as hell!

Now of course, the design is something that needs to be considered, but you really also need to make sure that you think about the phone itself – after all, you do not want to get a phone that looks cool but has no technology to back it up right?  Right!  That is why this phone is truly packed with all sorts of technology.  For example, a QVGA display, S40 UI, GSM/UMTA connectivity and a 3.2 MP camera!

Those of course are just a few examples but really … check the phone out for yourself, it rocks!
