A Jewel of Collaboration: Mulliner and Boodles Craft a Unique Bentley Continental GTC - AllCarIndex
In the realm of luxury automobiles, the convergence of heritage, craftsmanship, and innovation often yields extraordinary results. Recently, two stalwarts of British craftsmanship, Mulliner and Boodles, joined forces to create a masterpiece: a one-of-one Bentley Continental GTC. This collaborative effort between Mulliner, Bentley's renowned in-house bespoke division, and Boodles, the esteemed jeweler, resulted in a vehicle that transcends the ordinary, embodying elegance and sophistication in every detail.
Unveiling the Continental GTC, Mulliner and Boodles showcased a stunning fusion of design and craftsmanship. The exterior, adorned in a refined Porpoise Grey and Linen color palette, features subtle accents of Boodles' signature Powder Pink, adding a touch of sophistication. But it's the interior where the true marvel lies.
Step inside, and you're greeted by a symphony of bespoke details. From the painstaking 'Be Boodles' blind stitch embroidery, which required over 278,000 stitches and six hours to complete, to the 18ct white gold 'Be Boodles Bentley' pendant adorning the center console, every element exudes opulence and refinement. Even the veneers, featuring a delicate combination of Piano Linen and 200-million-year-old Autumn Stone veneer, speak to the meticulous attention to detail.
The collaboration between Mulliner and Boodles was born out of a shared commitment to excellence. Both brands boast centuries-old legacies of craftsmanship and innovation. Mulliner traces its origins back to 1760 when it was commissioned to create coaches for the Royal Mail, while Boodles, founded in 1798, has become synonymous with exceptional jewelry design.
The result of their partnership is a testament to their shared values and dedication to craftsmanship. The Boodles Bentley Continental GTC is not merely a car; it's a work of art, a celebration of British design heritage, and a showcase of the finest craftsmanship.
As the Boodles Continental GTC makes its debut at Jack Barclays in London on April 11th, it marks the culmination of months of collaboration and creativity. This one-of-one creation, with its blend of timeless elegance and modern sophistication, is sure to captivate automotive enthusiasts and connoisseurs of luxury alike.
For those fortunate enough to experience it, the Boodles Bentley Continental GTC offers more than just transportation; it's an embodiment of luxury, a symbol of prestige, and a testament to the enduring legacy of British craftsmanship. As it goes on sale from April 11th onwards, it invites discerning individuals to own a piece of automotive history—a true jewel of collaboration between Mulliner and Boodles.
