ROLLS ROYCE LA ROSE NOIRE DROPTAIL
The Rolls-Royce La Rose Noire Droptail stands as an ultra-rare embodiment of bespoke automotive artistry as one of only four created. The vehicle is a collector’s dream, a fusion of sculpture, engineering, and heritage destined for the most discerning of private collections.
Commissioned as a tribute to the elusive Black Baccara rose, its design embodies the flower’s deep, velvety tones and subtle crimson sheen. The bespoke finish is duly named True Love, a colour that shifts fluidly from pomegranate shadow to luminous pearlescent red under light. Perfecting the paintwork required over 150 meticulously refined iterations, layered in five coats of tinted lacquer over a flawless base.
Measuring 5.3 metres long and 2 metres wide, the body is sleek and yacht-inspired design. At the rear of the vehicle, sculpted sail cowls frame an aft deck inlaid with over 1,600 hand-cut and hand-placed Black Sycamore veneer pieces, a composition over 2 years in the making. The cockpit is tailored for two with low seating and an enveloping cabin creating a deeply personal driving experience while offering the open-air freedom of a removable hardtop. Interior leather in Mystery Red and True Love red is imbued with a copper shimmer.
The Rolls Royce La Rose Noire Droptail is a modern interpretation of the classic roadster silhouette, executed with a precision that blurs the line between
craftsmanship and haute couture.
