      Truly can't imagine spending that much money on some elphanting jewelry. In my mind, that is just simple insanity.

          Yes. When it comes down to it they are all just shiny rocks glued to bits of shiny metal.

                      Wouldn't it be funny, if one of these million-dollar pendants starts to self-destruct (or self-shatter) just like the recent "self-destructing Banksy"? https://edition.cnn.com/style/article/banksy-painting-questions-intl/index.html[^] Betcha, some would find it to be satisfying and some might find it to be a pity.
