Looking for the Most Expensive Easter Bunny?

April 6, 2006 | Posted by Allison as The Most Expensive at 10:42 am | Comments »

Thought buying Easter candy for the kids was expensive?  Why not take a look at the world’s most expensive wiggly-nose rabbit.  Luxist took note of this cute little fella being auctioned at Harrod’s. 

“Harrod’s is showcasing the world’s most expensive bunny. The bunny is made to look like the iconic Lindt chocolate bunnies, which are traditionally wrapped in gold foil and sold around the Easter holiday. Though the critter matches the 200-gram chocolate double in size, the Harrod’s bunny is inedible, made not of chocolate but of 24-karat gold. It is inlaid with diamonds, rubies, citrine and topaz, and is valued in excess of £20,000, or approximately $35,000.”

It is a beautiful thing, the Harrod’s golden bunny; but for me they took away the most important part- the chocolate.
