Givori Calypso

Luxury accessorizing specialized in mobile art, Givori, recently presented their latest Fine Jewelry Collection, which contains a new model of Greek-mythology inspired mobile phone called Calypso. Though a golden fish-scaled Nokia 8800 might not be the perfect mobile phone for most of you out there, the Calypso also has some other interesting features that you could only see on Mobiado phones in the past.

I don't know if you have heard about Givori before, or if you have ever laid your eyes on one of their previous “creations,” but I recommend you visit their website in order to see that the model right here actually looks better compared with the others. Previous models of Givori phones are very hard to describe in words.

Seen on bornrich, the model right here is handcrafted in England, from materials like natural mother of pearl, 18 karat gold and diamonds. Here is what the Givori brand manager, Nader Mikhail, had to say about these phones, “For the new Givori Fine Jewelry line, we drew inspiration from Greek mythology to produce a range that reflects timeless glamour, exquisite natural materials, and the romance of folklore. Through our unique collaboration with leading craftsmen in England, each mother of pearl element is individually hand fitted and delicately grouped together to form one seamless surface reflecting heavenly hues.”

If you care for some heavenly hues on a Nokia 8800, you can choose from two collections of Calypso phones, the Classic and the Exclusive. Like Givori has marketed their products so far, the Classic and the Exclusive collections have slightly different features and prices, the former being valued at $2,420 and the latter at $4,100.

What you get on the Exclusive that you will never see on the Classic Nokia 8800 Calypso model is a round brilliant cut 0.22 carat diamond solitaire navigation key, a flawless baroque shape pear pendant and a personalized name engraving option.

I think this phone is stunning! I totally agree it's nothing like their previous designs. I think Givori must have gotten a new head designer with their most recent creations because I'm loving them their new direction. I think crystallized phones are so over and done with!
