Caviar's Samsung Fold4 with meteorite inserts and gold costs $11,180
Luxury customization company Caviar is known for its extravagantly designed smartphones. It has now launched its latest collection, called the 'Heralds of the Galaxy.' Does that name ring any bell? Well, it is a collection of the latest Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4. What's special about them, you might ask. Well, they have actual meteorite inserts, real gold accents, and top quality leather covering.
Why does this story matter?
Caviar's customized phones are a hit among those who have deep pockets. Its stunning designs have made many jaws drop. That being said, the company has outdone itself with the Heralds of the Galaxy collection. The use of meteorite stones adds an otherworldly touch to the phones. If you are rich and are looking for a foldable smartphone, this collection is perfect for you.
The 'Golden Meteor' has meteorite inserts and gold engraving
The Heralds of the Galaxy collection includes four models dubbed 'Solar Eclipse,' 'Black Rain,' 'Canyon Diablo,' and 'Golden Meteor.' Golden Meteor is the star of the range with a double gold electroplated body and a back panel with meteorite inserts. The meteorite particles are from three stones, including Seymchan, Muonionalusta, and Canyon Diablo. It also has a Caviar logo engraved in gold.
Canyon Diablo has the same stones but a different body
Second in line is the Canyon Diablo, which also has the same meteorite stones. However, it has a Titanium with a black protective PVD body with no gold accents like the Golden Meteor. In this, the Caviar logo is engraved with Titanium. The company has announced that it will make only 29 copies of both Golden Meteor and Canyon Diablo.
Caviar will make 99 copies of Black Rain, Solar Eclipse
The line-up is completed by Black Rain and Solar Eclipse, both having the same Titanium with black protective PVD body used in hi-end Swiss watches. The former has real black calf leather inserts, while the latter sports calf leather and decorative gold-coated inserts. They have the Caviar logo engraved in Titanium and Gold, respectively. The company will make 99 copies of both.
