The world’s most luxurious baby bed
The world’s most luxurious baby bed is launching in Dubai – clad in 24-karat gold plating, lined with Swarovski diamond-encrusted quilting and costing a cool $60,000 (220,000AED). Built by mega-yacht designers and made with Maserati leather, Swarovski diamond-encrusted quilting and 24-karat gold this ultra-modern crib will be revealed at this month’s [March’s] INDEX interior design exhibition in Dubai.
Billed as being the epitome of diaper-doting luxury, the gold Luulu Crib – which takes 200,000 man hours to plate – is perhaps more suited to the highway than the bedroom, with its soft interior shell lined with the same leather as the seats of Maserati supercars.
However, partners Marta Buzalska and Dariusz Panczyk – who run Luulu from their home in Gdynia, Poland, where they produce three different cot-styles, the gold of which is the most prestigious – actually took inspiration from the cream of the high-seas in dreaming-up the concept for their slick sleep pods.
Marta explained: “We came up with the idea while walking around Gdynia Marina, observing the exclusive yachts in the docks, while awaiting the birth of our baby boy Franek, and looking for an ideal cot. There were plenty of beautiful baby beds on the market, yet all of them were of the classic type. We wanted to have something exceptional, almost like the yachts themselves: a bed that would provide our sweetheart with security while looking good in our modern home.”
The cot is inspired by superyachts, and comes in three different styles: white (pictured), black, and the gold edition
