Rolls Royce is preapring to celebrate the Year of Dragon 2012 with a commemorative collection unique detailing and design.
The Rolls-Royce Dragon Collection celebrates the ultimate symbol of power, prosperity and good fortune, for the Chinese. It offers a choice of either modern or traditional marquetry to match the customer’s veneer choice which – as a reflection of the Woodshop’s craftsmanship and attention to detail – is laser-cut and then hand-assembled into position in the veneer.
All the items are made at the Home of Rolls-Royce by the Bespoke team. They include:
- Dragon Coachline: Featured on the side of each Phantom or Phantom Extended Wheelbase, this hand-painted gold dragon is inspired by the Forbidden City in Beijing.
- Dragon Headrest Embroidery: This hand-embroidered symbol comes in four thread colours: Tan, Golden Sand, Black and White to complement the leather colour and additional seat piping feature.
- Dragon Phantom Passenger Panel Inlay: Hand-laid to the passenger panel of every car, with Phantom lettering under it, also in gold.
- Embroidered Cushions with R-R Logo and Piping: This one’s a bit girly! Two hand-stitched cushions for the rear passengers, specified with embroidered double R-R logos and piping to carefully accentuate the chosen interior.
- Illuminated Treadplates: The coolest feature of them all, illuminated treadplates with ‘Year of the Dragon 2012’ highlighted in LED lighting in all four door sills.
“At Rolls-Royce Motor Cars we delight in bringing new, exclusive designs to our customers”, said Torsten Müller-Ötvös, CEO, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. “The Bespoke team elegantly captures the imagination with this Year of the Dragon Collection, celebrating the turning of a New Year of prosperity and good fortune with this unique creative offering.”
“The Bespoke team is privileged to commemorate the Chinese Year of the Dragon with this exciting Collection,” said Thomas G. Jefferson, Bespoke Sales Manager, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. “This limited edition car embodies the synergy of craftsmanship, creativity and culture in a manner that is uniquely Rolls-Royce.”
