Goldstriker announced a new member of its luxury family. It’s the beautiful Nokia 8800 Princess Edition which will go on sale in the Colette store in Paris in January 2009.

There is, however, some reasoning beyond the price. The custom-made Nokia 8800 will boast 8.2 carats of diamonds on the front and rear, solid platinum finish and will be housed in a handmade, leather-lined, granite or marble box.

Specs wise, the Princess Edition is identical to the original 8800, but I guess tech features are not what potential buyers of this piece of jewelry are looking at, anyway.

Finally, you may want to know about the price, you ask (or not)? It’s 12,000 GBP, which may sound kinda steep, but the end result will make you bling no matter where you happen to be. ;)
