Caviar, a Dubai luxury smartphone manufacturer, has released a collection of iPhone 16 Pro in jewelry cases made of 18-karat gold in various shades, including Apple's exclusive color. Each phone is unique due to special ornamentation, drawing from the art of different epochas.
Caviar is a luxury brand that creates lavish versions of Apple gadgets by combining rare materials with cutting-edge technology. This time, the company's designers were inspired by Apple's presentation, which took place on September 9th. The team decided to complement the palette of the new iPhone 16 Pro series with variations in white, red, and yellow gold. Caviar's new custom collection is called "Art&Gold."
"Our team spent several months studying the gold shade provided by trusted individuals associated with Apple. The goal was to match it precisely in real 750-karat gold for true connoisseurs of gold iPhone cases. As a result, three variations were created: one replicating Apple's exclusive color, and two others complementing it in white and yellow versions," said Ana Al Hosani, of Caviar.
The flagship update is the iPhone 16 Pro, whose case is entirely made of gold in a shade that mirrors the new and unusual color variation introduced at the 2024 Apple Event for the iPhone 16 Pro. A darker version of red gold was developed specifically for the iPhone 16's release.
When designing the series, Caviar's artisans looked to the art of working with gold from different eras. From the motifs of medieval flamboyant Gothic, Art Deco ornaments, and early 20th-century decorative arts, to modern parametric and deconstructivist designs, the gold collection update is a tribute to the golden ideals of the past, striving for perfection and prosperity.
The brand has introduced a total of three luxurious models based on the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. All cases are made entirely of 750-carat gold in various shades. Filigree Gothic elements, Art Deco palm leaves, and "Apple" logos, cast entirely in gold.
Prices for the models start at $10 700 for iPhone 16 Pro Paramount (128 GB)
