Luxury mobile phone manufacturer Gresso has launched the Gresso Symphonia, a collection of gold MP3 players.

Possibly the ultimate status symbol, the MP3 players, like Gresso's phones, are made from African Blackwood aged for over 200 years.

However, the music players also feature a front panel constructed from 18-carat white or pink gold. The MP3 players also feature one gigabyte of memory and an FM tuner.

Furthermore, the creations can additionally be worn as jewellery also.

"The innovative flat keyboard of the player has special scratch-resistant covering, that is conceded to diamond in durability ... figures and letters of the keyboard are cut out by the ultra precise laser," Gresso notes.

According to news.com.au, the items retail for between $5,000 (£2,500) and $8,200.
