Dutch manufacturer Miniot has introduced three new wooden accesories for the iPhone 5: the new Miniot Book, Miniot Pouch, and the iWood 5. Miniot Book (€109, $143) is a book-style case for the iPhone 5 made from two types of wood. Its hinges are able to fold into a stand, snap to the back for handheld use, or allow the lid to act as a sunshade for photography, while an ultrasuede liner covers the glass. It will be available in three wood combinations starting on Oct.
28.
Based upon the prior-generation version for iPhone 4/4S, Miniot Pouch (€59, $78) is a box-like case carved out of one piece of wood. Available in a number of wood types, including teak, cherry, maple and zebrawood, it covers the iPhone and locks into place. It will be released Oct.
15. Finally, Miniot’s iWood 5 (€79, $104) is the followup to its playthrough-style iWood 4 case. Coming in a variety of woods, the iWood 5 is thinner than its predecessor, and will be available on Sept. 28.
