Phantom ‘Cherry Blossom’ inspired by the ‘Hanami’, a Japanese tradition of viewing cherry blossoms in the spring.

Its Bespoke Starlight Headliner boasts of more than 250,000 stitches which required 3 weeks alone to embroider.

Rolls-Royce has presented a highly Bespoke Phantom ‘Cherry Blossom’ commissioned by a Japanese client which was inspired by the ‘Hanami’ (flower viewing), a Japanese tradition of viewing cherry blossoms in the spring.

According to Rolls-Royce, the unnamed client wished to create their highly Bespoke Phantom as a legacy and experience to be passed down through the generations in their family, evoking the same spirit as Hanami itself.

Now delivered to its proud custodian in Japan, the design for one-of-a-kind masterpiece was conceived three years ago. To fully understand their vision, Rolls-Royce artisans met the commissioning client in Japan.

Just as the client envisioned, the intricate embroidery inside the cabin of the Phantom Cherry Blossom captures the sensation of sitting beneath a flowering tree during Hanami.

“With this magnificent commission, we translate an internationally renowned moment into our pinnacle motor car, Phantom, with exquisite embroidery comprising more than 250,000 stitches,” said Martina Starke, General Manager, Bespoke Design, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.

“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.”

Boasting of more than 250,000 stitches, its Bespoke Starlight Headliner is adorned with an embroidered cherry bough, sprinkled with delicate white blossoms.

In addition, the falling petal embroidery also appears on the rear door panels and Privacy Suite partition between the front and rear passenger compartments.

Rolls-Royce says that the design and development of this remarkable expression of contemporary craft spanned more than six months, while the headliner required three weeks alone to embroider.

In a Rolls-Royce first, the interior is completed with three-dimensional cherry petal embroideries that creates a striking contrast to the classic stitchwork of the falling cherry petals on the doors.
