The latest product coming from the Rolls-Royce Bespoke team is the Year of the Dragon Collection, a commemorative offering in preparation for this festive event, created to celebrate the ultimate symbol of power, prosperity and good fortune.

It offers a choice of either modern or traditional marquetry to match the customer’s veneer choice which is laser-cut and then hand-assembled into position in the veneer.

Taken separately the exclusive collection includes five particular items. Take, for example, the twin coachline with a dragon, in gold colour, hand-painted to the side of each Phantom or Phantom Extended Wheelbase.

In order to achieve perfect symmetry and balance, the dragon will always look forward. The hand-painted dragon coachline is inspired by the Forbidden City in Beijing and provides distinctive finishing touches to the car’s exterior.

The dragon also appears on the leather of every headrest, carefully hand-embroidered using a combination of four thread colours: Tan, Golden Sand, Black and White. The colours are designed to complement a palette of recommended leather colour options and the design can be finished with an additional seat piping feature.

A dragon inlay will be hand-laid to the passenger panel of every car in this unique collection. The Phantom model name is also applied in gold, the two features match together perfectly.

The interior promises two hand-stitched cushions for the rear passengers, specified with embroidered double R-R logos and piping to carefully accentuate the chosen interior.

Finally, the four door sills feature exclusive illuminated treadplates with ‘Year of the Dragon 2012’ highlighted in LED lighting.
