A surprisingly and strangely expensive piece has disappeared after being put up for sale, and it is a diamond-encrusted skull, leaving everyone confused, wondering where it has gone so far?

The story of the most expensive jam in the world

A spokesman for Hearst had claimed that the diamond skull was sold to an investment group for $100 million, and the spokesman added that Hearst had retained a portion of the work to oversee a world exhibition.

Critics said the high price of the skull, which was entirely covered in 8,601 flawless diamonds and cost $16.5 million to make, meant finding a buyer was problematic, the buyers’ identities were kept confidential and Hearst’s business manager insisted they received no discount.
