15 expensive luxury holiday 2021 gifts for the one on your list who has most everything
1. an adorable alpaca to serve as a living lawn mower
The Telegraph reports that the ultra high net worth gift of the season is an alpaca. Apparently, when the elite fled the urban centers for the countryside during the COVID-19 pandemic, they fell in love with the idea of being gentleman (and gentlewoman) farmers. Witness the rise of chicken keeping as evidence.
Now, though, the haute animal of choice is an adorable alpaca. And what’s not to love? They’re cuddly, beautiful, quiet, even-tempered – and they’ll mow your lawn for free! They’re chic decoration for the rolling fields surrounding an estate. And the kids all love them. Win-win!
BUY NOW: $250.00 – $8,000.00, depending on age, breed and heritage.
2. a home filled with art from a saatchi art subscription
Art adds so much character and texture to a home but it’s hard to know where to start. Saatchi Art, the world’s leading online art gallery, is here to help you build an enviable original art collection in a year by working with an expert curator. Topping our list of the best most expensive luxury gifts this holiday 2021 for the woman or man who already has most everything is The Ultimate Art Subscription. It includes one artwork per month with an approximate value of $1,200.

3. a 16th century castle in aix-en-provence from christie’s international real estate
Doesn’t everyone dream of owning a castle at some point in their life? The reality is that most are uninhabitable according to modern standards. Not this one, which has been beautifully restored. And retains charming historic details and gorgeous terraces, courtyards and fountains. Invite friends to enjoy the two swimming pools and tennis court!

From Les Necessaires d’Hermes collection comes this folding desk crafted in the high quality tradition of cabinet-making and upholstery. It’s got everything you need for a productive day with a fold-out desktop and retractable pulls, drawers, a magazine rack, a removable pouch and a secret compartment.

6. sailing and partying on the open seas from northrup & johnson
Will Covid ever end? Will we ever travel again? And we mean really travel…not just drive a state away. With new variants cropping up all the time, maybe it’s safest to charter a yacht and sail the open seas. This luxury yacht can accommodate 12 guests with seven luxuriously appointed state rooms. An outstanding sundeck with loungers and a jacuzzi allow plenty of opportunities to live the alfresco lifestyle while a crew of 24 make sure it’s the sail of a lifetime.
BUY NOW: $525,000.00 per week.
7. music on demand from bang & olufsen
Setting the mood with the right tunes wherever you want is priceless. The Beosound 2 wireless speaker is obviously gorgeous. And it’s also designed for a 360-degree sound dispersion to guarantee a crisp listening experience. The Beosound 2 also comes equipped with Google Assistant for hands-free convenience.
BUY NOW: $2,599.00.
8. pajamas that promote sleep from bernadette
According to the CDC, more than a third of American adults are not getting enough sleep on a regular basis. We’re pretty sure that wearing these smooth, cooling silk pajamas would make us want to start our bedtime routines an hour later. And they look sharp enough for top up Zoom calls meaning you’re all set for an afternoon nap right after.
BUY NOW: $711.00.
9. the luxury golf cart from garia
Pimp your ride on or off the course. Garia’s multi-functional, electric, and super quiet vehicles are designed and produced in Denmark with first class comfort in mind. With the largest cabin in its class, the Garia is fitted with features like built-in refrigerator, charging ports, lockable storage, waste bin, and more.
BUY NOW: Starting at $1,599.00.
10. the investment-worthy logo bag from chanel
This past November, the price of a Chanel bag increased again. Word on the street is that next year, the label’s luxury goods will be going up another 18% at retail. That’s bad news for those looking to buy now. But good news if you’re looking for an investment. If you could ever part with these quilted beauties, you’re pretty much guaranteed that it will keep (or even grow) its value. We love this graphic and vaguely sporty version of the the classic.
BUY NOW: $8,800.00.
11. first-class comfort in the friendly skies from gucci
No matter how you travel, do it in style. Travel accessories need not be dull and utilitarian, and one of the most expensive and lavish luxury gifts on our list for 2021 illustrates that point beautifully. This inflatable travel pillow gets Gucci’s maximalist touch in vivid hues and sumptuous silk.

BUY NOW: $500.00.
12. the sweats to wear when you got it like that from gucci
Speaking of the House of Gucci, leave it to the luxury label to craft the most elegant, opulent and indulgent pair of sweatpants and coordinating cardigan ever. We love the cable knitting, the sophisticated color and the discreet logo – whether it’s to fly in or binge-watch in, this set is cozy luxe at its very best.
BUY NOW: Sweatpants – $1,980.00. Coordinating cardigan – $2,400.00.
13. an old-fashioned game that looks new again from teckell
A game of pool can bring the whole family together but it’s time for the heavy, clunky table to get a state-of-the-art makeover. Each Teckell pool table is crafted in Italy with tempered glass and stainless steel for a sleek profile hat would make any game room look exciting and elegant.

BUY NOW: $55,000.00.
14. the coat fit for royalty from loro piana
The Incas considered vicuña wool to be a coat of pure gold. And they reserved the privilege of wearing it for Incan royalty. It can take up to three years for the vicuña, a llama-like animal found in the Andes mountains of Peru, to grow its fur. Aside from the golden neutral color, the wool is prized for being exceptionally warm and soft. Making this Loro Piana coat the absolute height of sophistication and luxury – and a perfect addition to our list of the best and most expensive luxury gifts of holiday 2021.

BUY NOW: $34,800.00.
15. the exercise bike that looks like a museum sculpture from teckell
No exercise room? No problem. We’d be proud to set this Ciclotte Teckell stationary bicycle anywhere in our house. But its sculptural crystal elegance doesn’t mean it’s not functional. With ergonomic design featuring a transmission with a turn multiplier system, the bike replicates the sensation of pedaling on the road and ensures high training workouts.
