When it comes to high fashion – it doesn’t get much higher.
当谈到高级时尚─没有比它再高级了。
A jeweler in Dubai has just unveiled the world’s most expensive purse, valued at $3.8 million dollars.
一位杜拜珠宝商刚展示世界最昂贵的手提包，价值美金380万。
Made in France, the high-priced accessory is known as the ‘Mouawad 1001 Nights Diamond Purse’ and took just under 9 thousand hours to make.
在法国制造，高价格的配件，以“Mouawad1001钻石之夜手提包”闻名，仅用不到9,000小时就完成制作。
[Pascal Mouawad, Jeweler]:
“It features 4,517 diamonds, white diamonds, yellow diamonds, and pink diamonds. It’s beautiful – it’s in the shape of a heart, inspired by fairy tales and for our love of beautiful craftsmanship and art."
珠宝商Pascal Mouawad说：
“有4,517颗钻石是这只皮包的特色，有白钻、黄钻和粉红色钻石，它很美丽 –是心的形状，灵感来自于童话故事，以及我们对美的工艺和艺术的爱。”

它的创作者Pascal Mouawad表示，他现在所需要的是买家。
[Fred Mouawad, Jeweler]:
“All I can say is this purse belongs to one person who deserves nothing less. So it is a man who most likely very much loves their wife, or their partner and they would be giving them a very unique piece as a gift."
珠宝商Fred Mouawad说：
“我只能说这只手提包，属于一个当之无愧的人。所以这最可能是一个男人非爱他们的妻子，或他们的伙伴，愿意给他们一个非常独特的作品作为礼物。”
A gift that would make a loved one extremely happy.. and no doubt, a little anxious at the same time.
这是一份会让心爱的人非常高兴的礼物，毫无疑问，同时会有点焦虑。
