The toilet is made mostly of gold, with the seat composed of bulletproof glass with 40,815 diamonds embedded in it -- a total 334.68 carats.

Coronet said the toilet is scheduled to be inspected by Guinness World Records on Wednesday to determine whether it qualifies for a new record: most diamonds set in a toilet. It would be the 10th word record for coronet, which previously captured titles including most diamonds set in a watch.
