Rolls-Royce Ghost Prism created for carmaker’s 120th anniversary

To celebrate the 120th anniversary of Rolls-Royce in 2024, the carmaker will offer 120 units of an exclusive version of the Ghost. Called the Prism, the inspiration for this car comes from the world of contemporary design which appeals to many Rolls-Royce customers from the fashion and design industries.

The Ghost Prism showcases flawlessly finished dark, neutral tones which are subtly accented with bold strokes of colour, creating a timeless statement. It is this contrast between a solid form and bright, spectral hues that inspired Ghost Prism’s name.

The pictures show the limousine in Gunmetal grey, which has a rich mineral finish, produced through an exacting 10-step process in which 4 layers of paint are meticulously applied, then polished by hand for 16 hours.

In place of the marque’s classic mirror-polished stainless steel finish, the grille and rear-lid brightwork are presented in high-gloss Burnout, a smoked black-grey hue. To achieve this effect, each metal piece is hand-prepared by the marque’s artisans.

First, a light abrasive is used across each piece to provide a ‘key’ for a hardwearing primer, onto which 4 coats of Burnout paint is then applied. After curing, these pieces are individually polished to ensure that they match the high-gloss brilliance of the motor car’s coachwork. In keeping with the understated aesthetic of Ghost Prism, the front bumper and side profile brightwork feature a deep gloss black finish.

Customers have a choice of 4 bold accent colours – Phoenix Red, Turchese, Mandarin and Forge Yellow – to complement their chosen exterior colour and create the striking contrast central to this contemporary design movement. The selected accent colour is applied to the lower bumper inserts, brake callipers and coachline – a sparing yet cohesive gesture that spans the mechanical, aerodynamic and sculptural elements of Ghost.

The subtle flashes of colour further extend to the interior of the motor car, including the 1,040 coloured ‘stars’ in the Bespoke Starlight Headliner – each individually placed in the leather canvas through perforated holes, precisely chalked and punched by hand – which fill the cabin with a gentle glow.

Naturally, a customer has a near-limitless number of Bespoke colourways for the interior. The early Ghost Prism commissions incorporate a light and vibrant palette, in contrast to the bold authority of the limousine’s exterior.
