In Matisse Black, a black fiberglass body is punctuated by a fluorescent green embellishment, echoing the jumping color blocks in Fauvist master Henri Matisse’s cut outs.
Rebel Pink sees sharp, striking pink accents in a bold black body. Sweet coolness cuts through a composed aura it is soft allure, but also an unyielding spirit of rebellion.
In Gossamer White, advanced 3D craftsmanship brings a delicate butterfly to life across the back panel, capturing the graceful motion of wings in flight. As light shifts, the butterfly appears to flutter across the surface airy, vivid, and full of life. For the Gossamer White variant, it will not be included in the preorder and will only be available until the end of Oct.
