Rolls-Royce unveiled the Amethyst Droptail on August 25, 2023.
It is an ultra-luxurious roadster that features a removable roof, gemstones, and wood.
Rolls-Royce describes it as a “breathtaking coachbuilt masterpiece that celebrates its … client’s cultural heritage, family legacy and personal passions.”
It was commissioned by a customer “whose family business has grown from a gemstone boutique to a multinational corporation with diversified interests.”
Rolls-Royce added the unnamed owner has a “collection of precious jewels, significant motor cars, and contemporary artworks … housed in a specially commissioned private museum.”
The client wanted a car inspired by amethyst gems which are the “birthstone of their son and an enduring symbol of purity, clarity and resilience.”
The luxury car has a two-tone paint job.
The model has special 22-inch wheels with a Pantheon grille that features a brushed and polished finish.
The car's veneer deck is the “largest wood surface ever produced by Rolls-Royce” and is also the “only aerodynamically functional wood surface on a new motor car.”
Indeed, Amethyst Droptail is a piece of art and “one of the most historically significant Rolls-Royces ever built.”
