There seems to be no limit to the extremes people will go to show off their wealth.

土豪们的挥霍炫富似乎是没有节制的。

And now, for those who truly want to wow guests - or simply want to flush some excess money down the loo, there is...gold toilet paper.

现在,那些真的很想让客人震惊一下,或者就是想要把钱财放水冲走的土豪们可以实现梦想了——黄金厕纸问世了。

The roll, sold by Australian company is made from 22-carat gold and costs a staggering $1,376,900.00 (around £825,839).

澳大利亚公司生产的这种黄金厕纸内含22克拉的黄金,价格约为137.7万美元(约837万人民币)上下。

The company claims that each roll - which comes with a free bottle of champagne - will be delivered personally.

制造公司称,每一卷黄金厕纸都会专人送货上门,同时附赠一瓶免费香槟。

And for those concerned that metal may not provide a gentle wipe, the roll is three-ply to ensure the utmost comfort.

有些人也许会担心金属材质不够柔软,但这种黄金厕纸是三层夹层设计,因而保证了最柔软的触感。

Speaking to the Mail Online, the company said the inspiration for the roll came from Dubai.

该公司对《每日邮报》记者称,黄金厕纸的创意来自于迪拜。

'When we saw in Dubai some hotels have full gold toilet seats and handles for the toilet paper we decided it would be a good idea.It took four years of patience to make one roll which has gold flakes through it.'

“当我们在迪拜看到,一些酒店提供纯金的马桶座圈和厕纸卷柄时,我们觉得黄金厕纸会是一个不错的主意。经过四年的不懈研究,我们研制出了这种厕纸,金屑内融于厕纸里面。”

The company describes their uber-luxurious product, saying: ‘This is the most expensive toilet paper roll in the world. A quality 3-ply toilet paper with 22-carat gold through the roll. We have only been able to produce one roll at this stage. Naturally it comes gift wrapped. This is 100 per cent useable and safe and made proudly in Australia. Perhaps unsurprisingly no one has brought the roll as yet, We would love to get a purchase.'

对这种奢华的产品,制造商的说法是:“这是世界上最贵的厕纸。三层设计,内含22克拉黄金。在现阶段我们只生产出了一卷黄金厕纸。自然出售的时候会附赠礼品。这种黄金厕纸百分百安全舒适,它的产地为澳大利亚。这卷黄金厕纸暂时还无买家出现,不过这在我们意料当中。我们很期待有买家出现。”

For those looking to leave guests in no doubt of their superior wealth, there is a range of gold bathroom fittings, including a golden toilet seat, available to complement the roll.

如果有富可敌国的土豪想要让宾客们佩服的五体投地,他们可以从该公司买到一系列的卫生间黄金配件,比如黄金马桶座圈,这些配件可以和黄金厕纸搭配使用。
