$1.9M diamond deal on Nieman Marcus Christmas list

Associated Press

DALLAS — Looking for stocking stuffers and still have $1.9 million burning a hole in your pocket? Design your own diamond ring and travel to Africa to see where the stone came from.

That’s among the unique offerings for sale in this year’s Neiman Marcus Christmas Book, which was unveiled Tuesday in Dallas.

For those who love the outdoors most when they’re also watching the Outdoor Channel, there’s a “his and hers” entertainment system replete with a television that rises out of the ground. It costs $1.5 million. Shipping and handling are not included.

The 87th edition has something for rare sports car collectors, too. Impress friends and enemies by driving up in one of 10 special-edition 2014 Aston Martin Vanquish Volantes, for $344,500. It comes in blue.
