Caviar, a luxury smartphone maker based in Dubai, has unveiled its latest masterpiece: a solid gold iPhone 16 Pro in the exclusive Desert Titanium hue. This limited-edition phone is part of Caviar's "Art & Gold" collection, blending exquisite craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology.
Caviar’s Art & Gold Collection
Inspired by Apple's presentation on September 9th, Caviar's designers aimed to enhance the iPhone 16 Pro's new color scheme with variations in white, red, and yellow gold. The outcome is a remarkable collection of smartphones that are truly artistic creations.
The centerpiece of this collection is the iPhone 16 Pro, featuring a case crafted entirely from 18-karat gold, perfectly matching Apple's new Desert Titanium color. Caviar's artisans have drawn from various artistic periods, integrating motifs from medieval Gothic, Art Deco, and contemporary parametric designs into the gold detailing.
Unique Models and Designs
One standout model, the “Symphony,” showcases a parametric pattern inspired by an Archimedean spiral, blending symmetry with the golden ratio. The phone's Apple logo is also made from 18-karat gold in the Desert Titanium color.
Besides the Symphony model, Caviar offers two other limited-edition iPhone 16 Pro models: the Duomo and the Paramount. Each features unique gold ornamentation, available in both 18-karat and 24-karat gold versions.
Pricing and Availability
The custom iPhone 16 Pro/Max models are priced between $10,630 and $62,740, depending on the gold purity and design. With their extremely limited availability, these devices are expected to be highly coveted by collectors and those with a taste for luxury.
