Uunique London Lotus iPhone 5 Case Worlds Most Expensive Mobile Phone Case.

The iPhone 5 luxury mobile case selection has been shockingly thin on the ground since the phones launch, all of the luxury marques such as Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Gucci et al which pumped out new cases for the iPhone 4 and 4s almost as soon as the phone was released have been suspiciously absent from the market, aside from a one off titanium frame case from Gresso, the only available cases are the bog standard offering you would find in the Apple stores.

Although the big name luxury brands seem to be staying away in droves, super luxury cases seem to be the order of the day for the iPhone 5, the aforementioned Gresso retailing for £2500, and now from Uunique, a luxury mobile phone cae manufacturer, comes the worlds most expensive mobile phone case, which happens to be for the iPhone 5.

Made from solid 18 carat Rose gold, and 10 carats of rare black, pink white diamonds, all of which comes packaged with a unique crocodile and ostrich leather clutch bag with the brands livery in rose gold, and all comes supplied in a box made from rare wood oaks, two varieties of burl and black walnut, and the lotus flower motif repeated across all the pieces.  Launched at an event at Kensington Roof Gardens last week, the case is one of a kind and cost £189,000.

As an aside, as well as this exceptional and unusual piece, designed to attract attention to the brand more than anything else, Uunique also has a selection of more standard yet still luxurious iPhone 5 cases, which makes it the only brand currently making luxury level iPhone 5 cases.  Please view the video below to see the manufacturing process for the Lotus case.
