7 Beautiful Apple Accessories for Desk Setups

If you’re looking to make your actual desk setup appear like an Instagram post, look no further. These are some of the most beautiful and cool Apple accessories. All these gadgets are plenty functional and useful, but they bring some style to typically boring tech products, as well.

Whether it’s for an iPad, iPhone, Mac or Apple Watch, you just have to look at the materials and colors these accessories are using to convince yourself they’re worth adding to your home or office. For example, including a touch of wood or metal to a desk or nightstand can provide an Instagrammable look without much effort.

Using a headphone stand is the perfect way to keep a tidy workspace. It’s akin to using a mannequin head to hold a hat. Here, Grovemade’s headphone stand combines either walnut or maple wood along with tanned leather and stainless steel to create a bold, attractive centerpiece made to elegantly display AirPods Max over-the-ear headphones. Little notches along the top add a touch of resistance to keep the headband in place and from slipping. Cork feet underneath keep the stand stable.

The Courant Catch:3 combines a wireless Qi charger and a catchall. On the technology side, there is a multicoil surface area (single device) to work with a wide variety of products from iPhones to wireless charging AirPods. Next to the charger is a curved cutout that is perfect for placing a wallet, watch, bracelet, keys or any other items you may keep in your pocket or purse.

This type of accessory will work nicely on a nightstand, but it should also be at home next to the front door. This valet combines function and sophisticated style into a single, desirable phone accessory.
