South Korean appliance maker LG Electronics Inc. has begun selling a new three-door refrigerator encrusted with about 4,900 crystals from Austria's renowned crystal maker Swarovski.

Only 200 of the refrigerators, which are available in South Korea for 3.99 million won (approx. U.S. $3,934), will be sold, LG said in a statement.

LG said the refrigerator, named Swarovski French Dios, is not for everyone. "The introduction of the Swarovski French Dios model is expected to help LG win sales from the upscale refrigerator market," said Kang Shin-ik, vice president of LG's domestic marketing team. (Yonhap)
