"A moving manifestation of a century of design and engineering excellence, the Rolls-Royce Phantom Centenary Private Collection is an ode to the nameplate's 100th anniversary. The Phantom model has captivated the world's most influential figures since its inception in 1925, spanning eight generations. The Private Collection edition, limited to just 25 examples, sees the marque's team of bespoke designers, engineers, and craft artisans embark on a meticulous research journey, culminating in a master artwork that captures the identity and history of every generation of Phantom."
"The Rolls-Royce Bespoke Collective - a team of skilled designers, engineers, and artisans - immersed themselves in the Phantom's legacy, meticulously studying its identity, pivotal figures, and defining events from the 1920s to the present day. This deep dive generated a master artwork including 77 hand-sketched motifs, which are now exquisitely woven into the marque's Phantom Centenary Private Collection. These influences tell the storied history of the Phantom, incorporating everything from pioneering woodcraft and laser-etched leather to couturier-designed textiles and sketch-like embroidery."
Rolls-Royce celebrates 100 years of the Phantom with the Phantom Centenary Private Collection, a limited run of 25 bespoke examples. The Bespoke Collective researched the Phantom's identity across eight generations and created a master artwork featuring 77 hand-sketched motifs woven into each car. The design incorporates pioneering woodcraft, laser-etched leather, couturier textiles, and sketch-like embroidery. Exterior finishes include a Super Champagne Crystal coating with crushed glass for an iridescent metallic shimmer and a black, white and gold palette evoking Hollywood and the 1930s silhouette. The collection honors landmark Phantoms such as the 1926 Phantom of Love and 1930 Phantom II Continental and points toward the nameplate's future.
