The ultimate phone case for art lovers: Casetify drops an exclusive Matisse collection
Casetify is launching a Henri Matisse-inspired collection on Aug. 13, featuring phone cases, laptop sleeves, iPad cases, and watch bands starting at £33.
TL;DR: Casetify's Henri Matisse x Casetify "Jazz & Cut-Outs" collection launches worldwide on Aug. 13, with prices ranging from £33 to £755.
Henri Matisse's work is instantly recognizable — bold colors and shapes that feel alive.
Late in life, illness left Matisse bed- or wheelchair-bound, unable to paint like before. So he picked up the scissors, cutting shapes from painted paper and arranging them into compositions by hand — what he called "painting with scissors."
Casetify's new collection draws straight from that story. The "Jazz & Cut-Outs" collection draws on Matisse's Jazz series, a body of work centered on rhythm, movement, and improvisation that mirrors the syncopated feel of jazz music itself.

Here's a closer look at the artwork featured across the collection:
Icarus, plate VIII (1947): A falling silhouette against a star-filled sky, blending myth with visual tension.
Nu Bleu II (1952): A single, bold blue shape defining the human figure through negative space.
La Gerbe (1953): A radiating burst of colorful leaves, pure and vibrant.
Les Codomas (1947): Sharp, syncopated shapes inspired by soaring trapeze performers.
Le Cirque (The Circus) (1947): A vivid, movement-heavy nod to the big top.
The Horse, the Rider and the Clown (1947): Overlapping shapes simulating fast-paced spectacle and travel.
The Clown - Plate I (1947): The Jazz series' opening piece, mixing sharp framing with floating abstract elements.
The Heart Smitten by Love (1949): A bold red heart wrapped in blue script, made for the journal Verve.
