Hughes, who
is known for crafting incredibly pricey luxury tech products, created the
design at the behest of a Chinese businessman. According to CNN, Hughes said
the businessman owned a rare 26-carat black diamond that had been passed down
from one generation of his family to the next and wanted to include it in the
iPhone design.
n his website, Hughes
details the features of the black diamond iPhone 5, which includes an inlay of
600 white diamonds, a solid gold Apple logo surrounded by 53 white diamonds,
135 grams of 24-carat gold and sapphire glass for the screen. As for the black
diamond, the stone replaced the iPhone’s home b*tton. Overall, the design took
nine weeks to create.
Previously, Hughes
created an iPhone 4S Elite Gold phone priced at £6 million (about $9.18
million) that once held the title of world’s most expensive phone. However,
with his latest creation, Hughes has broken the record yet again.
