The Mokume Gane is created by putting copper, nickel silver, and brass through a thorough 7 step cleaning process, which is the key to preventing material delimitation. The layers are then stacked and wrap in steel foil. Once in the air tight environment, the billet is fused through heat and pressure for 2 to 3 hours in an electric kiln. It is then forged, hand twisted, and forged again for create the final material of Mokume Gane.
The hand twisted Mokume Gane frame is then precision CNC machined and hand polished. No two phones are alike. The top of the phone is precision engraved with the designers signature and inlayed with a white or black diamond. The iconic Mobiado logo is CNC machine engraved into the body to bestow a final touch of elegance.
Large sapphire crystal plates, hand painted with 24 Karat gold lettering and symbols are precision inset into the Mokume Gane body. The buttons of the Classic 712MG are crafted from an array of sapphire crystal buttons (hand painted with 24 Karat yellow gold, 18 Karat rose gold, and silver) giving the phone a total of 204.5 Carats of sapphire crystal. The phone is then assembled using 24 Karat gold plated stainless steel screws.
The battery cover is made entirely from one piece of sapphire crystal and incorporates a unique hidden sliding battery cover mechanism (patent pending). With each piece of Mokume Gane being twisted by hand, every 712MG phone is truly one of a kind.
