Luxury introduction calendar that prices £22,000 goes up on the market – together with VERY extravagant objects
A luxury jewellery brand has sparked disbelief with its £21,995 Christmas advent calendar.
UK-based C W Sellors is selling the S220, modelled on Chatsworth House for the eye-watering sum – and there’s only one left in stock.
The items, which include earrings, pendants, bracelet and more, were hand selected by Rebecca Sellors, who grew up in the family business, which was founded in 1979.
C W Sellors told Femail previously the brand enjoys a ‘special relationship’ with Chatsworth House, but have produced the calendar themselves.
It includes 23 pieces of jewellery in total behind its 24 doors, including several 18 carat necklaces and pendants – putting the classic chocolate calendar to shame. It also includes a candle, diffuser and gin.

C W Sellors says on the website the calendar is ‘Not just for Christmas , the box will make the most beautiful jewellery box and a year round adornment to your dressing table.’
As the jewellery included is worth £25,515, purchasers will save £3,520 by buying it in the advent calendar format.
It also gives the option of paying in monthly installments of £348.79, meaning it would take five years to pay off. Luckily, it comes with free delivery.
The calendar has taken social media by storm, sparking disbelief at the enormous sum.
‘This better come with the Krabby Patty secret formula,’ said @hanvxvh on TikTok, from Manchester.
‘She said 21,000 smackeroos for this advent calendar! I just screamed in poor. For £21,000 I want a lock of Jesus Christ’s hair, Zeus’s lightning bolt, maybe an extraterrestrial.
‘How many units have sold? I thought £4,000 for the Dior calendar was expensive.
‘That advent calendar is bigger than the house I live in! This is the most insane thing I’ve ever seen and I absolutely love it.’
