The main function of masks is to filter the air entering the mouth and nose to block harmful gases, odors, droplets, viruses and other substances. They are made of gauze or paper. Who would have thought that masks can also be jeweled and promoted as a member of luxury goods. According to foreign media reports, Yvel, an Israeli jewelry company, has produced a jewelry mask, which is the most expensive mask in the world. This mask is inlaid with gold and diamonds and is worth 1.5 million US dollars (about 10.45 million RMB).

        Yvel company owner and designer Isaac Levy said that this 18K white gold mask will be decorated with 3,600 white diamonds and black diamonds. It will also be equipped with a first-class N99 filter element at the request of buyers.

　　 Levi said that buyers have two other requirements: one is to complete the work before the end of this year, and the other is that it will become the most expensive mask in the world. Levi said happily that the last condition is the easiest to meet. The weight of this jewellery mask will reach 270 grams, which is almost 100 times that of ordinary surgical masks. It may be eye-catching to wear, but it is estimated to be greatly reduced in comfort. Levi showed several parts of the mask, studded with diamonds, and a gold plate with a hole for filtering. He said: "I am very happy that this mask has given us enough job opportunities, so that my employees can have jobs at difficult times like now."
