There is so much to take in when you first lay eyes upon a Roll-Royce Phantom Series II, some purposefully obscure, that you’ll be forgiven for missing out on some of the more intricate detailing. The whole vehicular makeup is steeped in tradition; while technology marches onwards, Rolls-Royce go through painstaking lengths to ensure that finer details are still meticulously carried out by hand, to give a personal touch.
Artisanal Embelishments
Embellishments such as the hand embroidery and timely process of custom veneering are just some of the finer details that make the £350k+ price tag, dare we say it, justified. A shining example of the Phantom’s artisanal finesse is the 6metre coach line; perfect in its parallel simplicity but another optional embellishment, completely hand drawn with no aid. This task falls to one man, who’s steady hand has earned him the right to be flown worldwide to make any personal amendments to existing Phantom’s – amendments such as a hand drawn Spirit of Ecstasy or your family crest. Hailing from the fading artistry of sign writing Mark demonstrates his steady hand:
