Rolls-Royce Introduces Special Edition Car As A Tribute To This Season: Details Inside

Rolls-Royce on Thursday introduced its Phantom Cherry Blossom Extended commission, drawing inspiration from Sakura season and client's connection to tradition of Hanami, or flower viewing. The Rolls-Royce Phantom Cherry Blossom reflects the cultural significance of cherry blossoms, symbolising nature's beauty and the importance of the present.

The Cherry Blossom Phantom is a one-of-one car made for a Japanese client seeking to preserve Hanami memories as generational legacy which led to a collaboration with Rolls-Royce artisans over three years to realise his vision. Moreover, the interior features include 2,50,000-stitch embroidered Starlight Headliner, depicting cherry bough sprinkled with white blossoms. The thread texture of the embroidered cherry tree is achieved using an offset tatami stitch, inspired by the ancient Japanese weave technique.

The headliner is embroidered with cherry blossom flowers, formed of individual satin-stitch petals designed to capture the light at different angles. The petals can be seen throughout the rear cabin, falling onto the doors and partition wall of the motor car’s Privacy Suite. In a Rolls-Royce first, the interior is completed with three-dimensional cherry petal embroidery. These tactile, sculptural details create a striking contrast to the classic stitchwork of the falling cherry petals on the doors.

The exterior of Phantom Cherry Blossom showcases Crystal over Arctic White finish with hand-painted coachline featuring cherry blossom motif, providing hint of vehicle's interior artistry. Commission exemplifies Rolls-Royce's Bespoke capabilities, merging cultural inspiration with craftsmanship.

“Cherry blossoms are cherished in Japan as a symbol of the ephemeral nature of life and the beauty of transience. With this magnificent commission, we translate an internationally renowned moment into our pinnacle motor car, Phantom, with exquisite embroidery comprising more than 2,50,000 stitches. For the first time at Rolls-Royce, we applied three-dimensional embroidery that gives the falling flower petals a tactile, sculptural quality. Developed using ancient Japanese stitching techniques, this motor car represents a deeply personal memory for the client and demonstrates the power of Bespoke in uniting individual meaning, heritage craftsmanship and modern artistry.” Martina Starke, General Manager, Bespoke Design, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, said.
