The engraving is extremely precise, cut to a depth of just 145-190 microns, and then hand-sanded for a smooth, sculpted look.

The laser-engraved bonnet of the Rolls-Royce Phantom Arabesque is a first for the brand, and this technique took five years to develop and involves engraving a geometric Mashrabiya pattern directly into the paint surface, revealing a darker layer beneath. 

The car is finished in a two-tone Diamond Black and Silver paint scheme, with a hand-painted Short Coachline, elevated by a Mashrabiya motif. It also gets an illuminated Pantheon grille, dark chrome detailing, an uplit Spirit of Ecstasy and 22-inch part-polished alloy wheels. Inside, the Mashrabiya theme continues across the cabin. The interior is trimmed in Selby Grey and Black leather, with mashrabiya embroidery on the headrests, Starlight Doors, and illuminated treadplates that echo the bonnet design.

The Phantom Arabesque focuses on craftsmanship and cultural inspiration, using a new laser-engraving process and bespoke detailing to reflect Middle Eastern architectural heritage in a single, commissioned model.

Poll of the month

What do you think about the push for ethanol blends even higher than E20 petrol?

Good move; it cuts dependence on crude oil imports
I support it as it’s a greener solution than pure petrol
I’ll accept it only if it’s cheaper than E20 petrol
I am concerned about damage to my vehicle
Not good; fuel efficiency will drop even further
