BUGATTI BABY II If you are still looking for a Christmas present for your kid, we may have found it. A Bugatti! No, not a mini-version of a Chiron but a reincarnation of the original Bugatti Baby, of which 500 were built between 1927 and 1936. Yes, Bugatti did build this scaled-down version of their famous Type 35 race car back then.

In 2019, Bugatti unveiled the Baby II, a 3/4-scale model that has enough space for kids from 14 years and up. Built in collaboration with The Little Car Company, the Pur Sang top-model, made out of aluminium, is powered by a 13.4-horsepower electric motor, good enough for a top speed of 42mph (when put in Expert Mode via a Chironinspired Speed Key).

We hear there are a few cars left! The price? US$69,000. www.thelittlecar.co

DIAMOND & GOLD ENCRUSTED FACE MASK

We knew this would be happening - the world’s most expensive face mask. Made out of 18-karat white gold and decorated with 3,600 white and black diamonds, the mask has been designed by Israel-based Orna and Isaac Levy. Its new owner is a Chinese billionaire from Shanghai, who now lives the United States. And yes, it has been fitted with top-rated N99 filters. On a side note: The designers told their client that since the mask will weigh 270 grams, it won’t be comfortable to wear.

The price? US$1.5m. We guess he won’t replace it too soon...
