Burj Al Arab commissions gold iPhones to mark its 15th anniversary

15th anniversary celebration takes on the bling way at Burj Al Arab.

After rolling in four new Rolls Royces as a part of its anniversary festivities, the world's only 7-star hotel has commissioned Gold & Co London, one of the largest manufacturers of luxury gold plated technology products, to create thirty bespoke limited edition iPhone 6 in 24 karat gold as well as black gold.

Fifteen pieces of each edition will be available exclusively at Burj Al Arab. The iPhone 6 Black Gold is available for $13,000 (Rs 8 lakh) while the plain-vanilla yellow gold version is tagged at $12,200 (Rs 7.5 lakh).

Each gilded iPhone 6 comes with its own gold plated identification and authenticity plaque as well as Burj Al Arab's anniversary logo on the rear.
