Luxury customization brand Caviar has revealed a physical design for Apple’s anticipated, unreleased foldable iPhone Ultra, featuring a 925 sterling silver chassis priced at nearly twenty thousand dollars, according to Topik.id and Surabayainside.com.
Liquid Metal Design and Sterling Silver Craftsmanship
The new “Liquid Metal” chassis replaces the standard exterior of the upcoming foldable device with custom panels made entirely of 925 sterling silver, as reported by Topik.id. According to the company, the design draws inspiration from frozen liquid metal in motion. Craftsmen shape the silver into heavy sculpted relief and finish it with a high mirror polish, which creates shifting rippling effects on the back panel depending on the light. Surabayainside.com notes that the standard Apple logo is also replaced with a three-dimensional version cast from sterling silver.
Unlike previous custom builds from Caviar that relied on excessive gems, gold filigree, or meteorite fragments, the Liquid Metal variant uses raw materials and reflective properties. Topik.id describes the approach as a modern take on ultra-luxury tech, resembling contemporary metal sculpture rather than traditional jewelry.
Pricing, Production Limits, and Hardware Status
The custom foldable device carries a starting price of $18,840 for the 256GB base model, according to both Topik.id and Surabayainside.com. Caviar has capped global production at 17 units. Each purchase ships in branded packaging that includes a 24K gold-plated Caviar key.
Pro Tip: While luxury mockup render units showcase structural details like the hinge, foundational hardware specifications remain unconfirmed. Buyers must wait for Apple’s official keynote to see the standard, unplated version of the foldable device.
Apple has not officially announced or confirmed the foldable iPhone Ultra. According to Surabayainside.com, the standard iteration of the device without the silver wrap will debut during Apple’s keynote event next month.
