Following the release of its Pi5 S2 earbuds in “Sage Green,” British audio label Bowers & Wilkins is celebrating the 30th anniversary of its Nautilus speaker with a new pearlescent colorway.

The innovative loudspeaker is known for its artistic and structural design, earning itself the Queen’s Award for Innovation. The ultra-modern Nautilus speaker is honored with a “Pearl” exterior featuring a swirling pattern that mimics natural seashells. In addition, the upper half boasts four audio mechanisms that range in size, connected to protruding pillars that shoot out horizontally.

The “Pearl” hue emulates the internal shell of marine mollusks, which inspired the speaker’s very name 30 years ago.

Take a closer look at the Bowers & Wilkins “Pearl” Nautilus speaker above. The soundsystem is available for purchase via the brand’s website for £90,000 GBP (approxiemtly $113,000 USD).

In case you missed it, Uber will soon offer flight bookings in the UK.
