Why not spend some money to protect your precious iPhone? These luxury iPhone cases are made from carbon fiber, Tuscan leather, mahogany, ostrich skin, alligator skin and even gold embellished with diamonds and have prices ranging from $180 to over $100,000.

10. Ultra Case Luxury Edition Royal Crown – $179.99

Top 10 Luxury iPhone Cases - Luxury Edition Royal Crown

The enormous, heart-shaped artificial crystal affixed to the back is this case’s claim to cost. It also features a stunning array of Swarovski crystals topped with a jeweled crown that will let everyone around you know who’s in charge. This case isn’t for anyone who values a slim case, however, as the decorations make the encased phone at least half again as deep as the phone itself.

9. SGP Ott-Paint Ultra Thin Limited Edition Gariz Case – $249.99

Top 10 Luxury iPhone Cases - SGP Ott-Paint Ultra Thin Limited Edition Gariz Case

This case, created jointly by Gariz Design and United SGP Corporation, is beautifully painted with Ott, a special chemical paint that is not only flame retardant and heat resistant but also waterproof, mothproof, antiseptic and antibacterial. The case comes with a leather sleeve and protectors for both the screen and Apple logo. If you want one, though, you’d better hurry—only 50 of these premium, individually numbered cases will be produced.

Luxury iPhone Cases - Swarovski Wildcat

8. Swarovski Wildcat
$299.99

Featuring Swarovski crystals arranged by hand in a leopard-spot pattern, each of these luxury iPhone cases is completely unique. The easily snapped-on case is supposed to be as protective as it is aesthetically pleasing, but Ultra Case doesn’t list the materials used to create the “crystal hard case.”

Luxury iPhone cases - Orbino Strada

7. Orbino Strada
up to $319

There are other iPhone cases out there made of the “finest” Italian leather, but what makes the Strada unique is its patented belt clip/pedestal. Not only is this belt clip removable, it’s also made of palladium metal and it can even be used to prop up your iPhone so you can watch videos at your desk. After all, you probably don’t have any other viewing apparatus there. The Strada also features a screen protector and connector access. Oh, it’s also hand-stitched. That automatically makes it at least twice as good. The Strada starts at $99, but you can pay more to get one made from one of a variety of gentle woodland creatures—from ostriches ($249) to crocodiles ($319).

Luxury iPhone Cases - GlitterRing iPhone Cover

6. GlitterRing iPhone Cover – $379-$399

GlitterRing’s one- and two-piece iPhone cases come in a variety of designs. Whether you’re partial to “Puffy Pink” or “Golden Swirl,” you can get it slathered on your iPhone 3G or 3GS in the form of over 1,000 genuine Swarovski crystals. In case of damage, GlitterRing’s premium cases even include a repair kit with extra crystals.

Luxury iPhone Cases - iWood + Ryou

5. iWood + Ryou – $454

Miniot’s iWood case has been upgraded at the hands of Ryou Co., Ltd. and Urushi lacquerer Seiichiro Fujino. The artist uses Chinese raw lacquer, clear lacquer, pigment and silver foil to turn one of Miniot’s already posh cherry iWood casts into true works of art.

4. Softbank BB Samurai iPhone cases
$1,000

Luxury iPhone Cases - Softbank BB Samurai cases

Softbank BB is bringing the aesthetic appeal of traditional Japanese lacquerware to your iPhone. These five cases commemorate five famous samurai from Japan’s storied history—(from left to right) conquerer Oda Nobunaga; one-eyed warlord Date Masamune; tactician and “Dragon of Echigo,” Uesagi Kenshin; famed lover Naoe Kanetsugu and triumphant underdog Yukimura Sanada. The cases were created in collaboration with 350-year-old lacquerware company Zohiko and each design comes with a different cloth pouch.

3. Louis Vuitton iPhone cases
up to $1,120

Luxury iPhone Cases - Louis Vuitton

Louis Vuitton is now offering four different flavors of iPhone case: Monogram Canvas, Taiga Leather, Epi Leather and Alligator Skin. Everyone knows adding the LV logo to something makes it practically priceless. But these prices range from $225 for the Monogram Canvas case to $1120 for the Alligator Skin case. Unfortunately, these costly cases commit the cardinal sin of covering the phone’s screen.

Luxury iPhone cases - Diamond iPhone Case

2. Diamond iPhone Case
$20,000

If you think buying a case worth fifty times the phone it carries makes perfect sense, then this is the case for you. With its 42 VVS1 diamonds (3.5 carats), it’s the most bling for your buck. That’s only $5,714 per carat. Great deal, huh?

1. GnG “Golden Delicious”
$100,000+

What is the most expensive iPhone case in the world? This extravagant case is the culmination of twelve months of development. The case features a 1mm subshell made with 140 grams of 18k gold, a carbon fiber inlay and about 200 diamonds. The outer frame features another 400 diamonds in the logo, which may be customized. As a customizable luxury item, however, prices may vary widely based on the materials needed.

Honorable Mention: exo2 Brass Engraved with Wood Insert – $150

Top 10 Luxury iPhone Cases - exo2 Brass Engraved with Wood Insert

Seen in an episode of Fox’s Fringe, “Brown Betty,” EXOvault’s metal iPhone cases are hand-made in Brooklyn, NY. Their latest and most expensive offering features a rosewood inset that provides better reception—and a more pleasing aesthetic—than the aluminum grills on their previous models. This particular model features a beautiful engraving above the insert’s dovetail joint. EXOvault also offers brass and aluminum cases for as low as $110.

it is odd how Louis Vuitton can get away with displaying their brand so prominently when it’s might be gaudy with other brands.

the luxury case with gold and diamonds is a too flashy.

I had the Sena MagnetFlipper but just replaced it with a handmade leather pouch called the SuperSlim from ikonicedge.
I was really after something like the ikonicedge as its got a minimalist while still very protective look which is something I had a problem finding.

That diamond case is awesome but its price is incredible… It is the most luxurious one I have ever seen. Would you pay $20,000 for a damn iPhone case? I won’t. I will still adhere to those cheap yet stylish cases. The case I got from http://www.uxsight.com/category/86534/iphone-cases.html only cost me $6 but it works fine.

I bought an apple branded case from china it cost $5.00 including postage, i had more protection with that than any other case with my iphone.

What does Lous Vitton know about iphones anyway..u people buying expensive looking materialistic cases. i really dont look at them and no-on else does. Ur all idiots for spending more than $20 on a case.

Heck,
to the one that said the iphone would have to be worth more to cover it in diamonds, I have a custom made iphone that I paid close to $50,000 for so to cover it in an expensive case makes sense. My iphone is a prototype that I designed. It starts my car, and operates all my computer driven home. The case on my custom iphone is made of titanium outer shell and is complimented well with the gold and diamond case. Its all about flash and showing you have the money and arent afraid to spend it. For those that are making fun of the cost, you are just jealous that you cant afford these cases.

My eyes are bleeding change it. Unless there is an Iphone case that turns into IRON MAN SUIT. I’d buy that suit instead for a million dollars and then crush your hands so you may never design another iphone case or those ugly bags ever again.

DANG!!!! That last one is off the hook but $100,000…??thats just stupid cuz you know that in a year or two theyll come out with a better phone and the case wont fit it. But like I said it’s nice and all but it’s stupid cuz you’ll end up scratching the case then that means that you have to buy a case for your case know wat im saying.

#4 seems like the best one to get in terms of price (slightly expensive) style and effort. $1k for a paintjob done by a 350 year old mastered-paint company, and the designs are sweet, and they tell a story.

In the other hand the Louis Vitton one is completely bull poop because I’ve seen one at the market for $1.99. Look at the design, from original too a copy makes no difference at all.

Urgh, I hate to pick a fight with a 10-year-old but I’m about 100% sure that no daddy of yours forked out $100k for a bloody iphone case, and if they did I’m pretty sure none of your friends are jealous, I’m sure they would much prefer some tacky pink plastic iphone case you can get for $6 off of ebay.
