Gold-Adorned Phone Shells

The Digilux Cases are Decorated With Crystals and Precious Metals

— November 2, 2012 — Tech
Phones are often cared for like they are precious gems; the Digilux cases for the iPhone 5 takes this statement one step further by turning the coveted Apple Smartphone into a pampered brat.

This luxurious line of covers beautifies your cellphone with either Swarovski Crystals or 24 and 18-carat gold. The sparkly diamond case is made of yellow or white gold with the diamonds running along the side of your iPhone 5 like a decorative banner. The other cases are more subdued, letting the yellow of the precious metal speak for itself.
