Only two months after announcing the first handsets from its Avantgarde Skeleton Collection, Gresso has now unveiled the Skeleton Gold phone.

Not too different from the Avantgarde Skeleton, the Gresso Skeleton Gold is, obviously, dressed in more gold.

Its 23 functional keys are “executed of 18k gold”, while its QVGA screen is protected by hand-polished 42k sapphire glass, which is inspired by complicated swiss skeleton watches.

Many mobile companies collaborate with various other companies to come up with a brand new luxury product. Here is yet another one.

After the Motorola RAZR V9 Ferrari Luxury Edition, we have Sony Ericsson collaborating with Ducati, the Italian company that makes awesome bikes that make girls drool : ) .

It is the same old Sony Ericsson Z770 but with Ducati branded covers, themes, screensavers, videos and its own HBH DS-220 based Ducati Bluetooth headset.

Gresso, the Russian luxury phone manufacturer, will soon release two highly expensive handsets, included in the new “Avantgarde White Diamonds” collection.
After the Sol Steel and Luna Steel devices were unveiled, the new collection includes two new mobiles called Gresso White Diamonds and Gresso Royal White Diamonds.

In terms of design, the new phones are not different from the other handsets that Gresso rolled-out until now - their hand-assembled body panels are made out of 200-year old African blackwood, the keyboards have a base plate made of titanium, their stainless steel battery cover has a magnetic lock plus leather and gold decoration.

The displays of the two new Gresso handsets are covered by 42K sapphire crystal glass, their keys are made out of 18K gold and as a signature feature - all the numbers on the keypad are laser-cut in Roman style.

But what makes the new devices different is their keypad, for which the manufacturer used diamonds :

Gresso White Diamonds is the “cheap” device from the two new ones, coming for 9,000 Euros (about $14,135). Aside from the materials listed above, the handset also brings white diamonds, crafted into its navigation pad.

The Gresso Royal White Diamonds is the more expensive one of the two. Only 200 units will be produced making it a limited edition handset. All of its 23 gold keys are crowned with a total of 2.53K of white diamonds. It will be priced at 33000 euro (about $52,000).

The collection will be presented at JCK Las Vegas Show, the leading jewellery fair in the USA, which debuts on May 30. Shortly after, the luxury handsets should be available for purchase.
