Go For The Gold: Gold Editions of Just About Everything.

Above items available at Goldstriker.

Gold version. Gold edition. Gold plated. Awash in Gold. Gold: limited, exclusive, special. Whatever you want to call it, it's very hot.

Whether it's actual real gold plating (like many of the small hand-held electronics now sold on luxury sites) or merely a 'gold' version, objects that have the gilded shine are everywhere. On the road or in the bathroom, there's now a gold version of just about everything. Some are outrageously priced, while others could be stocking stuffers. So take a look.

Here's a few "gold" versions for you with links to purchase.

Jabra's bluetooth JX 10 has now been introduced in a 24kt brushed gold version (in addition to the stainless steel), designed by Jacob Jensen.
