The green pigment in an emerald, recognized as the color of beauty and of constant love for centuries, is now ready to adorn your iPhone. Since its launch, the iPhone has been the prime target of haute couture brands as they grab it to adorn with precious stones to bring that wow factor. It’s now picked up by Continental Mobiles which has already being impressing the elite with rubies and diamonds decked iPhones, to give it the Green touch. No, the issue has no link with the environment (hope it stays green forever!) but Emeralds!

There are people who would simply buy what is in vogue. The result is that every person walking across Hyde Park would have the same thing with them. Then there would be others who like exclusivity. For the latter ones, Nokia has launched its latest craft-piece called the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte.  It has interesting materials in the making such as carbon fibre, titanium, polished glass and stainless steel to give it an arty look. But the USP of the product is that it is in 24k yellow gold makes it a sheer pleasure to see and hold.

At £2099, it is not a high price to pay considering the brand value of Nokia, the original design of the product and the fact that it is hand tailored in England. I particularly like the looks of gold on Black which reminds me of a beautiful speckled snake. It is so classy and unisex that it will appeal to both men and women!

iPhone, the unprecedented device by Apple, is being launched with another exclusivity factor. Continental Mobiles, well known for its range of luxurious cell phones, has pimped the 3G, 16GB white luxury i-Phone with Pigeon Blood Red rubies and white diamonds. Exclusively and intricately handcrafted, this piece of art comes from England for £3099 (about $5,550). Though this isn’t the first union of gemstones with the much-hyped 3G iPhone, it will certainly be leap forward of the earlier versions. This adorned Apple cell phone comes in a sophisticated briefcase that promises a shield to this delicate gadget. And that’s not all! This security comes in a variety of elegant shades to choose from especially the Piano finishes that are inspired by the graceful curves of the Steinway Grand Piano. This seems to be a melodious twist!

Trendy and chic as the iPhone may be, it still vies for your haughty touch (no pun intended!) and dressing it up in glam-style is the only option. So here’s technology coming hand-in hand with the pompous flair.

Diamonds are known for its spell bounding beauty, spirited resistance, devout purity and seamless personality. And if you are fortunate enough to don your gadgets and must-carry thingamajigs with such precious stones then go ahead to change your current model with diamond encrusted Nokia N95. Designed and developed by Continental Mobiles, it doesn’t enjoy an edge over Amosu’s diamond bathed BlackBerry edition but surely short fall short from attaining the tag of a magnum opus.

The handset sports a silky Sterling silver front panel layered with 4.42ct of brilliant-cut, VS1 eminence, color G-H, diamonds mined via natural form, and to my much surprise each model is customized by an artistic craftsmen. This elite offering from the house of Continental Mobiles address a new meaning to the world of technical merit in synergy with screaming beauty of diamonds with a retail price of £10,000.
