Paris Hilton has been showing off her mom's pricey Moët & Chandon champagne vending machine on social media.
The Paris in Love star, 41, took to her Instagram Story on Thursday alongside mom Kathy Hilton to promote her new cookware line, Paris Hilton Housewares. The collection includes pots, pans, mini fridges, water bottles, tumblers, cutting boards, a "That's Hot" teapot and more.
In addition to doing an Amazon Live for her Paris Hilton Holiday Hosting Guide, the socialite also to shared a video of her mom's Christmas decorations. As she made her way through the dining room, Paris Hilton shared footage of the 63-year-old fashion designer's pink Christmas tree, glittering chandelier and the champagne vending machine, which was tucked away in a corner.
"Literally obsessed with this Moët & Chandon vending machine. How cool is this?" the Simple Life alum asked her 21.1 million followers as she inched closer to get a better look. "So chic, so much fun. I need one of these for my house. Literally iconic."
Of course, the "iconic" machine comes with a hefty price tag. According to Luxury Launches, the item will set you back a cool $35,000.
Unfortunately, the product—which is sold exclusively at Neiman Marcus—is sold out at the moment. If and when it comes back in stock, however, it sounds worth the wait.
"What could be better than French champagne at the push of a button? Proof that dreams do come true: MOËT & CHANDON has made a customizable vending machine. Simply insert a golden Moët & Chandon token, push a button to make your selection—and voilà—a bottle of perfectly chilled bubbly is yours," a description of the machine on Neiman Marcus' website reads. "A robotic arm carefully lowers bottles to prevent shaking, limiting the risk of an unexpected burst upon opening."
In total, the product holds 360 mini bottles, weighs a whopping 715 pounds and comes in a variety of colors including black, white and gold.
That being said, $35,000 merely gets you the machine itself. Consumers will need an additional $5,313 to stock it. This estimated figure is based on the average cost of a Moët & Chandon 187 ml bottle, which is approximately 14 euros ($14.76).
Moët & Chandon is a winery located in the Champagne region of France. It was founded in 1743 by Claude Moët, a Dutch vintner and wine merchant. Today, it's one of the world's largest champagne producers.
