If the latest iPhone isn’t enough status symbol for the tech-savvy fashionista, how about a smartphone wrapped in black platinum?
Discerning Apple fans who have enough cash to burn can go for the bejeweled look with the latest custom-made iPhone 6.
Luxury smartphone accessoriser, Givori, has unveiled its customized model of the iPhone 6 in the UAE. Adorned with rare precious metals and high-quality leather, the Givori Phantom Black Platinum can be had for Dh13,700.
Designed for the high-end and brand-conscious consumer, the phone is hand-crafted in Italy. It features black platinum, one of the hard to find precious metals in the world, and the luxurious American alligator skin, so each piece is considered a masterpiece. All parts of the phone are coated with a nanotechnology film to prevent oxidation, fingerprints and color fading.
“[Givori] enwraps the iPhone 6 with black platinum, one of the rarest precious metals in the world,” the company said in a statement.
“The back of the phone is made from the finest grade of Mississippiensis alligator leather, which has been uniquely treated with silver dust to give it a distinctly masculine metallic finish.”
“Givori customisations are hand-crafted in Italy, and each handset is designed to be a master piece in its own right.”
The smartphone accessoriser said they decided to launch the new product following the success of its previous iPhone models in Phantom Black Platinum.
Interested buyers can check out the phone at Harvey Nichols in Dubai, select Damas Les Exclusives jewellery boutiques and Axiom showrooms.
