Two Ways Craft Does Gold on the iPhone 18
Craft by Merlin offers gold on the iPhone 18 Pro Max in two different ways: a full 24K Gold plated finish, and a newer Gold Accents line that applies gold detailing over a colored base. They look related but are built for different buyers, and this guide breaks down the difference so you can pick the right one.
24K Full Gold: Complete Coverage
The 24K Gold line plates the entire body of the iPhone 18 Pro Max in gold, available in Full Gold and Rose Gold. It is the maximum statement finish in Craft's catalog, starting from AED 9,095.
Gold Accents: Gold Where It Counts
The Gold Accents line keeps a colored base, Silver, Black, Glacier or Burgundy, and applies gold detailing to the camera ring and the functional buttons only. It reads as a lighter, more everyday way to wear gold, priced at AED 7,995.
