The aesthetic of Apple products connotes words like clean, modern, sophisticated, sleek, and simple. If you love your Apple products but find the aluminum and glass look a bit boring, oh and you also have $10,000 to spend, feast your eyes on the gaudy goodness of the Crystograph Blooming Gold edition of the iPad 2. This 32GB WiFi iPad 2 will arrive at your door beaming and sparkling with over 10,000 Swarovski crystals studded to its aluminum back. This special edition uses five different colors of Swarovski crystals to create a glowing and glittering effect while still showing off the Apple logo. For the giant pricetag, you can also customize the colors used on your iPad to create a darker or lighter gold coloring. It pretty much ruins the clean minimalism of your device, but hey, whatever floats your boat. And just to be clear, you do get a 32GB WiFi iPad 2 with your glittery purchase.
