Russian diamond group World Of Diamonds has teamed up with Cé La Vi Singapore, a company that specializes in “unique experiences that stimulate the senses,” to unveil an exclusive $2 million dining experience that includes a 45-minute scenic helicopter ride over the city, a chauffeured Rolls-Royce drive, and a luxury private cruise over eight hours.
The day culminates with an elaborate 18-course dinner on the 57th floor of Singapore’s iconic Marina Bay Sands Hotel, in a setting including 10,000 fresh roses, a live band, and 360-degree views of the cityscape. The Modern Asian degustation menu, served at sunset, includes fresh Belon Oyster with champagne foam, Almas Caviar, Jamón Ibérico, Gewürztraminer-poached foie gras, and veal liver. Additional delicacies such as lamb sweetbread, Bresse poulet consommé, striped sea bass, air-flown Alaska wild salmon, verjus Sorbet, slow cooked pigeon, Glenvale pork loin, and apple-wood grilled Mishima sirloin also feature on the menu. The food will be accompanied by 44- and 55-year-old vintage wines, a 1988 Salon ‘S’ champagne, a 2008 Domaine Leflaive Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru, and a 1961 Chateau Haut-Brion, among other tipples.

Guests will eat with diamond-studded chopsticks engraved with their names, while seated in custom-made armchairs fabricated by The Plush that they will get to take home at the end of the trip. Karan Tilani, Director of the WOD Group, says the experience is ideal for “the ultimate proposal, an exceptional occasion, or simply a celebration of life.” It also features another significant takeaway: a rare 2.08-carat Fancy Vivid Blue Jane Seymour diamond ring is included in the experience.
The ‘haute joiallerie’ masterpiece was created to honor the Hollywood actress of the same name, and is encrusted with a brilliant blue-hued cushion-cut sparkler, worn and personally endorsed by the former Bond girl (Live and Let Die) during a lavish dinner celebration at Cé La Vi Singapore in April this year. The ring, which is a US size 7, will be introduced to its new owner at midnight, with Louis XIII de Rémy Martin cognac and an extravagant fireworks display to mark the moment.
Potential clients will be approved for the experience at the group’s discretion. Anyone interested should contact celavi@worldofdiamonds.tv – Relaxnews
