In the world of luxury automobiles, Rolls-Royce reigns supreme, and their recent reveal of the Rolls-Royce Black Badge Ghost Ekleipsis Private Collection stands as a testament to their unmatched craftsmanship.

Inspired by the celestial beauty of a solar eclipse, the exterior of this model is adorned in a deep and enchanting hue known as Lyrical Copper. The color, treated meticulously with a powdered copper pigment technique, dances with an iridescent effect when touched by light.
Mandarin accents are gracing the bumper intakes, hand-painted coachline, center caps, and brake calipers Stepping into the cabin, you're met with a beautiful high-contrast color scheme, a blend of Mandarin and black adorning the perforated leather upholstery of the seats. The dashboard tells the story of a total solar eclipse, portrayed in a labor-intensive display that took over 100 hours of meticulous work.
