These new cases feature luxurious elevated materials, fresh innovative designs, and revolutionary protection and functionality.“We are very proud to introduce a collection that marries modern mobile accessories with luxurious styles,” said Nicole Love, Case-Mate Vice President of Product Development. “From the handsome interior of a vintage Rolls Royce to the classic quilted-leather handbags of Chanel – this collection is inspired by the classic materials and iconic styling that have defined luxury for centuries. The products we’ve designed for the new Samsung Galaxy S IV are without a doubt the most fashionable and protective cases we have ever released.”• Crafted Woods, $80: Inspired by vintage automotive interiors, the Crafted Woods Collection is a marriage of sophisticated natural materials with a thoughtful attention to assembly and finishing detail.

The Case-Mate Tortoise Shell Case is minimalist by design to maintain the sophisticated appearance and sleekness of your smartphone.• Brushed Aluminum, $50: Sophistication is in the details. The Brushed Aluminum case excites with a blend of sleek & sporty with top-notch protection. Available in Brushed Gunmetal with Black.• Carbon Fiber, $80: The Carbon Fiber Collection is crafted from the technologically advanced lightweight fibers used by Formula One racecars and luxury automobiles.

Available in Nero (Black) and Argento (Silver)• Glam, $50: Designed for elegantly styled women, the Case-Mate Glam Collection is inspired by dazzling fine jewelry that shimmers. The dynamic sparkle of the Glam Collection is created through a unique finishing process in which vibrant sparkles are captured onto a glossy, smooth surface, ensuring durability and a stunning depth of color. Available in Champagne, Rosegold, and Midnight.• Madison, $100: The Madison Collection embodies the iconic trend of quilted fashion accessories. By combining quilted genuine leather with the added refinement of Swarovski Crystals, the Madison case is perfect for the fashionable, modern woman. Available in Black.• Signature Flip, $50: Fashioned from genuine leather, the tailored design has 360-degree front and back protection.
