If you have a bundle of money, say like $10,000, you will be able to get this designer phone from iida. The designer dog named “Ring-Ring” by bu famed designer Yayoi Kusama has very unique qualities. The dog is usually wrapped in vivid colors and happy dots. While looking fabulous it has the power to make people happy, specially rich people who are bored out and with capability believe anything anyone say.
This Yayoi is no joke either, his previous designs, NFOBAR, talby, neon, and MEDIA SKIN, all were added to the permanent collection at New York’s Museum of Modern Art. I like the NFOBAR phone!
