putin-iphone5sRussia is a vast country, never mind that it already had many of other smaller countries come out of it when the U.S.S.R. somewhat disbanded. With plenty of natural resources to fall back on, it is a growing country that has its citizens optimistic about the future. Her president, however, is not exactly too popular on the international front at the moment, but Italian luxury brand Caviar/Perla Penna has a strong affection for Putin having rolled out a gold-plated iPhone recently, calling it the Caviar iPhone 5S Supremo Putin.

Of course, with gold plating and a name of one of the more expensive exotic foods out there, you can be sure that this is no ordinary and affordable iPhone 5s. We found out that this smartphone will cost somewhere in the region of $4,363, and can only be purchased in Russia itself. At the back of this handset, you will see the face of Vladimir Putin etched across the gold plating, alongside Russia’s coat of arms.

Caviar touts the Caviar iPhone 5S Supremo Putin to be a “presidential accessory for people of a higher range.” Each purchase will arrive alongside its very own specially crafted box, but other than the luxurious exterior, everything else inside remains the same as a vanilla iPhone 5s.
