A collection of 100 wild-looking smartphone cases inspired by the upcoming solar eclipse is selling out fast. The one-of-a-kind solar eclipse iPhone cases, made by the craftspeople at Carved, will give your handset an out-of-this-world look.

“We’ve been working hard to capture the essence of this coming 2024 eclipse,” the company said Friday on its Facebook page. “In all the excitement we’ve made a very limited run of eclipse designs just for you!”

Solar eclipse iPhone cases

We all know iPhones look gorgeous without cases, but sometimes you want (or need) a little protection. It’s easy to settle for something utilitarian like an Apple Silicone case (or an atrocity like an Apple FineWoven case). But finding a unique iPhone case that stands out in a sea of bland options can prove far more difficult.

Carved makes its cases out of hardwood and epoxy resin. The just-released ones in Carved’s eclipse collection look just as stunning as the others the company makes. And they’re one of a kind, so if you see one you like, you should snap it up now. Several have already sold out.

“Our Phone Cases are inspired by the beauty of our earth from the perspective of a satellite,” reads Carved’s description of the Brittney case, picture on the left above. “This phone case is 1 of One and is made in Elkhart, Indiana using real Ebony wood burl & epoxy resin.”

In case you’re wondering, Elkhart will be in the path of totality for Monday’s rare celestial event.

Carved’s solar eclipse iPhone cases cost around $60 and would make a perfect memento to help you remember the magical moment when the moon passes between the earth and the sun. Especially if you don’t get it together to take a proper solar eclipse photo. (Our how-to came help you snap the perfect eclipse pix: How to take solar eclipse photos with iPhone.)
