Rolls-Royce: Symbol of power.
“Our aim is to create a modern interpretation of the dragon capturing its essence as a symbol of power. The design evokes a sense of motion and energy, expressing the dragon as a driving force, all rendered with depth and complexity to reflect its commanding spirit and presence.

It was an inspirational journey for our Bespoke Collective to reinterpret such a significant icon; our Bespoke artisans added their own subtle dimension and character to the dragon expression, showcasing how a single design can be transformed through different mediums and craft techniques.” Rebecca Davies, Bespoke Designer, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.
