Have a need for extravagantly priced but exquisite-looking white ceramic iPod speakers? The Phonophone II, more whimsically described by Unica Home as a "sculptural audio console," costs $450, but this is a true piece of artwork.
That's how I'm choosing to think of this piece by Tristan Zimmerman — as a "piece" — rather than just some iPod speakers.

I love my iPod speakers, but they're definitely not as design forward as the Science and Sons' Phonofone II (on sale for $425, originally $495). The classic phonograph player, which was invented at the very end of the 19th century, is the inspiration for the Phonophone II, which has been updated for the 21st century. Made of cast ceramic, this art-meets-old-school-technology sculptural object was designed by Tristan Zimmerman for Science+Sons, and works as an amplifier for an iPod or MP3 player.
