Gild The Throne! Kanye West and Kim Kardashian flush nearly $1 million on gold plated toilets for their new Bel Air mansion


She has been out of the spotlight for nearly six weeks now after becoming a new mother to her newborn daughter North West.

But it seems that Kim Kardashian has also been busy with the all important task of decorating her and Kanye West's new $11m Bel Air mansion, which is currently being renovated.

And of course it is nothing but the best for the lord and the lady of the manor.

It has been revealed that the couple have splashed out a whopping $750,000 on four gold-plated toilets for the sprawling abode.

Kimye now join the likes of other famous celebrities and members of royalty who also have gold plated plumbing featured their homes.

However, the couple cannot quite compete with the world's most expensive gold toilet, the $5 million Hang Fung Gold Toilet.

The 24k gold bowl is a feature of Hang Fung jeweler’s solid gold bathroom in Hong Kong.

Meanwhile, the couple's gilded throne is not the only expensive furnishing featured in the Kardashian/West household.
Kanye has also reportedly splurged on six special-edition beds from a company which supplies London’s Savoy Hotel, the total coming to $1 million.






The couple are also said to be blinging out their kitchen with a Swarovski-encrusted fridge freezer and almost $1 million worth of Electrolux appliances.

A source told The Sun: 'They expect the interior to cost twice as much as the property. They’re spending more than a million on a security system alone.'

And according to TMZ, the couple's luxury home is also said to include a hair and makeup salon, bowling alley, indoor and outdoor pool, basketball court, movie theater and custom gym.

'It's so exciting for them,' a source told People magazine. 'The house is gorgeous. And they really wanted and needed the privacy.'

Kim and Kanye are currently renting a home near Kim's mother Kris Jenner's house while they wait for the finishing touches to be completed on the Bel Air mansion.

A source told Radar Online several weeks ago: ‘Kim and Kanye have finally settled on a temporary mansion for their family to move into. It should be ready for them to move in the next two weeks.

‘It's over 8,000 square feet and offers complete privacy, which was a big concern of Kanye's. The security system is being upgraded and Nori's nursery is being outfitted with surveillance cameras.’

And North’s safety was apparently the utmost concern for Watch The Throne rapper Kanye.

The insider added: ‘When it comes to Nori's safety, Kanye isn't taking any chances. Kim has had stalkers in the past, so nothing is being left to chance.

‘Of course, Kim wants everything to be perfect immediately for their temporary residence, even though it's a rental. Family pictures are being hung on the walls in the house, and Kim is talking about painting Nori's room.’
