Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Singapore Showcases The Phantom Pinnacle Travel Collection
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Singapore presented the Phantom Pinnacle Travel Collection to a select audience, the first time the car is shown after its debut at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show. A new Bespoke Collection motor car, the Phantom Pinnacle Travel Collection has been conceived both to celebrate the love of travel and the success of the Bespoke programme. The car serves as a showcase for the imaginative heights of craftsmanship, design and excellence that emanate from the Bespoke design studios at the Home of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood, England, seen through the prism of modern luxury travel. To underline its rarity, it is 1 of only 15 such motor cars produced worldwide.
Answering a growing interest in luxury travel, the Phantom Pinnacle Travel Collection offers a luxuriant color palette, opulent, sumptuous materials and the most complex, beautifully hand crafted marquetry ever seen in a Rolls-Royce, evoking the experience of travelling on luxurious cross-continental trains.
The richness of its two-tone exterior color scheme of Smoky Quartz complemented by Cornish White on the lower side panels, hints at the luxury awaiting the traveller inside. Whilst a unique Smoky Quartz coach line, with an abstract motif of a streamlined train travelling at speed, invites you onboard for a journey of discovery.
The opulent color scheme continues inside with a number of Morello Red and Seashell leather combinations for seats, roofline, pillars and door cards plus specifically developed Morello Red lamb's wool floor mats to produce a cosseting interior in which to travel, no matter how long the journey. A further motif in Smoke Grey thread evoking luxury travel is stitched into the seat flutes and is echoed in individual fabric cushions which heighten the comfort for both rear passengers.
Using methods akin to the artistry of fine furniture makers, Rolls-Royce creates perfection through a process that marries cutting-edge technology with traditional craftsmanship. Individual pieces of wood veneer are laser-cut to ensure precision. Then, a craftsperson painstakingly assembles the sections, ensuring they perfectly express the vision of the marque’s Bespoke design team. A fastidious process of quality control follows, utilizing the world’s most accurate measuring tool – the human eye.
In the case of the Phantom Pinnacle Travel Collection, 230 individual pieces of marquetry combine to create the incredibly striking motif of a cross-continental train speeding across a landscape with a trail of steam left in its wake. This motif flows across the front-fascia pieces of the glove compartment and passenger panel to the rear picnic tables and door cappings. The same motif bleeds onto the door cards through 24,633 individual stitches, emphasizing the painstaking craftsmanship required to perfectly match the two details.
Renee Chua, General Manager of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Singapore, added, “I’m delighted to present this rare masterpiece in Singapore, where travel is close to the hearts of many residents. The lucky owner of this example will have a Rolls-Royce made to the highest levels of the Bespoke programme.”
