Vertu Boucheron 150

Times might be hard, but there are still a select few who have the purchasing power to live as regally as before, no matter the economic climate around them. These are the people who are able to pick up the Vertu Boucheron 150 handset that would turn King Midas green with envy. It is made out of solid gold and took around 1,000 man-hours to shape, 700 hours to hand polish it as well as 500 hours to built in – all without the help of machines but relying on the power of human hands only. The sapphire crystal keypad looks too precious to use, while its wooden case is made from Noce Pedullo walnut tree courtesy of Reuge from Switzerland. Each time the case is opened, you will be greeted by the Vertu signature ringtone. Each Vertu Boucheron 150 is tipped to retail for approximately $30,000.
