UK : Egyptian cobra keeps watch over exotic shoes

Posted by Miqe on September 11, 2007

Shoes are one thing that women just cannot resist! No matter what they can afford, a lady can just not take her eyes or heart away from a striking pair.

Well, London-based Harrods, known for its unique shoe creations, has added one more temptation in its bag of goodies! This retailer has designed exquisite sandal studded with ruby, sapphire and diamond that is priced at US $120,000.

Company unveiled this exceptional piece yesterday. Infact, this footwear had an unusual guard, an Egyptian Cobra, that hissed around during the launch.

The poisonous reptile had been especially hired for the event, which not only kept the itching hands away but also added to the glamour and grandeur of the sandal!
