The Truth — Wilde Literary Phone Case

Price$32.00

Wilde published The Importance of Being Earnest in 1895, the same year he was arrested. Algernon — his most deliberately unreliable character — gets the clearest lines in the play.

Oscar Wilde

"The truth is rarely pure and never simple."

Every time you pick up the phone, Wilde's line is the first thing there. Not as decoration — as a reminder. Wilde wrote it in 1895, and here it is, in your hand, at 7am, before anyone has had the chance to oversimplify your morning.

The Design

The enso wraps the quote on the back and deliberately continues around the sides — the circle doesn't end at the edge, because the edge isn't where Wilde's thinking stopped either. The attribution anchors at the bottom arc, grounded, as if he's still standing behind it.

Also in the Oscar Wilde collection: The Truth Tee, The Genius Exception Tee. Browse the full Oscar Wilde collection.

About This Case

  • Raised edges protect the screen and camera
  • The design wraps onto the sides intentionally — the enso continues beyond the back panel
  • Induction charging compatible — works with most wireless devices
  • Available for iPhone 11 through iPhone 17 Pro Max

Who It's For

The one who thinks before answering. The reader who trusts footnotes more than headlines. Anyone who has watched something real get flattened into a talking point and felt the loss of it.

Keep the complicated thing intact.

Oscar Wilde, in Plain English

  • Lived: 1854–1900, Dublin to London to Paris — in roughly increasing order of exile
  • He was celebrated by the same public that watched him be destroyed: packed theatres, then a packed courtroom
  • His plays sold out London's West End. Four years later he was doing hard labor in Reading Gaol for being gay
  • Released in 1897, he never recovered financially or socially. He died in 1900 at age 46.
