There is something incredibly charming about the wooden [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magsafe-iphone-stand) speaker dock. This dock was created by [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-christmas-tree-alternative) merchant Yellow Glue Blues and uses no electrical power whatsoever to alter the sound of your iDevice.

The wooden iPhone speaker dock measures a mere 2" x 2" x 9" and comes in three different wood types, cherry, walnut or soft maple. Additional woods can be ordered upon request for a $10 fee. The speaker dock is designed to hold all generations of iPhone, but the Yellow Glue Blues warns that some older models of iPhone (that means you, 3G) may not fit with their cases on. The dock is available now for $60. In case you were wondering, the sound quality is described as "amazing."
