British luxury marque, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, has unveiled the Arcadia Droptail, a breathtaking coachbuilt masterpiece that takes its name from the mythical realm of Arcadia, a place depicted in Ancient Greek mythology as ‘Heaven on Earth’.

On the outside, the duotone Arcadia is painted in a solid white infused with aluminum and glass particles because the client wanted a timeless white that appears as a solid colour at first glance, but appears more complex under natural light.

The cabin is parked with stunning woodwork finishes, which took more than 8,000 hours of development, plus a leather interior finished in two entirely Bespoke hues and named after the commissioning client.

As with the other Droptail builds, the Arcadia features Bespoke Timepiece. Unlike the others, the assembly alone took five-month, making it the most complex Rolls-Royce clock face ever created.

“With Arcadia Droptail we witness daring in minimalism and subtlety, informed by the lifestyle of an individual who has a unique appreciation for British luxury. In creating this historic motor car, we once again prove our peerless abilities in synthesising and executing Bespoke design at its highest level.” says Anders Warming, Design Director.
