Rolls Royce Phanton Metropolitan Collection, craftsmanship of excellence
Rolls-Royce , extra luxury cars brand, unveiled the Phantom Metropolitan Collection at the Salon Mondial de L’Automobile in Paris. The collection features exquisite limited-edition designs inspired by the modern metropolis.
Hand-crafted cars, like a tailored suit, for the most demanding: the Bespoke service of the English brand can satisfy every small whim, but just 20 of these beautifully crafted motor cars will be available to commission.
The Phantom Metropolitan Collection pays homage to the world’s great metropolis through the meticulous application of marquetry, the art of inlaying small pieces of wood veneer to form the famous city’s skyline, realized by exceptional English designers and craftsmen.
When open, the Phantom’s signature picnic table presents occupants with an elevated view of the city, created through the expert application of 500 individual wood veneer pieces. On closing the tables, a different perspective of the cityscape is offered. This incredible process, a unique objects d’art, was so complex to take an expert wood craftsperson several days to complete. In conclusion, for those who crave tech-details: the Phantom is powered by a 6.75-liter V12 engine that produces 453 hp.
