Regalia – 18K Solid Gold iPhone 18 Pro & Pro Max

Cut into a lattice inspired by imperial architecture, Regalia's backplate isn't stamped or plated — it's shaped from a solid block of 18K (750) gold, the same purity standard used in fine jewelry. Every Regalia begins as a genuine Apple iPhone 18 Pro or Pro Max; GoldPrivé's work happens entirely on the exterior, by hand, in Dubai.

Underneath the gold, a chocolate brown leather inlay picks up where the metal leaves off — deep, grained, and warm against the lattice's cooler brilliance. It's a contrast that reads differently depending on the light, and wears in rather than wears out.

A mirror-polished 24K gold plated frame runs the full perimeter, tying the backplate and leather into one continuous line. Because the lattice itself is solid gold rather than a plated shell, Regalia carries real weight in the hand and real value as gold — something a few microns of plating over aluminium can't offer.

Regalia is one of six 18K solid gold designs in the collection — see how it compares to Valorian's chevron, Aurelius's Mother of Pearl lattice, and the platinum-and-gold builds of Imperium, Sovereign and Élysian — or browse the full collection.
