TOP-5 most expensive Barbie dolls in history

TOP-5 most expensive Barbie dolls in history
The topic of Barbie dolls is one of the most discussed on the eve of the premiere of the film about one of the symbols of America. New toys and accessories for them appear, as well as accompanying souvenir products. And which Barbie dolls have become the most significant in history. Let's recall the five most expensive beauties.

The fifth place is occupied by a doll from the "Barbie in Midnight Red and Pink" series, produced in a limited edition. This midnight pink beauty sold for $17,091. She has a long fur-lined dress and cloak and long white gloves.
In fourth place is the original Barbie doll, which was born in 1959. It is very difficult to find such a toy, but they are sold at exorbitant prices. For example, like this one, one of the very first Barbie dolls in a zebra suit sold for $27,450.
The creator of this beauty was Ruth Handler, the wife of the founder of Mattel, which specialized in creating children's products. The woman often watched her daughter Barbara play not with dolls, but with pictures of models cut out of magazines.
The next record holder was created in honor of the 40th anniversary of Barbie dolls. "Mattel" together with "De Beers" came up with clothes for this glamorous beauty. Along with a sheer full-length skirt, gold bikini top and matching tangerine belt, 160 diamonds were used to adorn the look. The cost of Anniversary Barbie was $85,000.

To promote the 13th film of the Barbie franchise, "Barbie and the Diamond Castle," Mattel released one of the most valuable dolls.
The unique beauty, with jewelry consisting of white gold and 318 diamonds with a total weight of 20.66 carats, was estimated by experts at $94,800. The jewelry was included in her dress, necklace and tiara. This is what made it so expensive, although you can imagine how expensive it would be if it was actually sold with a diamond lock.

The first place was taken by an elegant Barbie with white hair in a ponytail and a black cocktail dress. It was created in a single copy by the designer Stefano Kanturi.
Make-up and stylish hairstyle were thought out to the smallest detail, as well as jewelry: a necklace with a rare diamond adorns her neck, and a diamond ring on her right hand, on her ring finger.

The doll was sold for $302,500 in 2010 at a Christie's auction. All proceeds from the sale went to the breast cancer research laboratory fund.
