The Black Rose Batur: Bentley’s Ultimate Expression of Bespoke Luxury

Bentley has once again redefined the boundaries of luxury craftsmanship with the unveiling of ‘The Black Rose’ Batur—a striking testament to bespoke artistry and engineering excellence. As one of only 18 Baturs in existence and among just three right-hand-drive models, this exceptional grand tourer is the ultimate embodiment of exclusivity and personalization. With its pioneering use of 3D-printed solid rose gold and a breathtakingly dark aesthetic accented with satin rose gold highlights, ‘The Black Rose’ stands as a masterpiece of design, performance, and sustainable luxury.

At the heart of this extraordinary commission is an unparalleled collaboration between the customer and Bentley’s renowned Mulliner division. Mulliner, Bentley’s bespoke coachbuilding studio, has crafted an automotive jewel that perfectly reflects its owner’s vision. The deep, lustrous Black Rose metallic paint—a custom shade developed exclusively for this vehicle—sets an opulent yet commanding tone. A high-gloss Beluga upper body further enhances its dramatic presence, while delicate satin Rose Gold accents flow seamlessly across the front grille, endless bonnet line brightware, mirror caps, lower body kit, and the imposing 22-inch tri-tone wheels. These accents, paired with the Baturs’ advanced carbon ceramic brakes and striking black calipers, create a bold interplay of contrasts that define its unmistakable character.

Step inside ‘The Black Rose,’ and a world of unparalleled luxury unfolds. The interior is a symphony of darkness and warmth, an exquisite balance of rich Beluga leather, charcoal grey tweed fabric, and handcrafted veneers painted in Black Rose metallic. These elements provide a striking canvas for what is, without question, one of the most innovative material applications in the automotive industry—hallmarked, 18-karat solid rose gold, 3D printed to perfection. This industry-first application of gold Additive Manufacturing (AM) brings an elevated sense of tactility to key driver touchpoints, including the Drive Mode Selector and Bentley’s signature Organ Stop vent controls, while a rose gold insert marker on the steering wheel serves as a subtle yet powerful statement of distinction.

This innovative gold printing process, developed in collaboration with the esteemed goldsmiths of Cooksongold, is a testament to Bentley’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of both technology and craftsmanship. Every gram of the gold used in ‘The Black Rose’ is sustainably sourced from 100% recycled jewelry, reinforcing Bentley’s dedication to ethical luxury and sustainability. Each piece is also hallmarked in Birmingham’s famed Jewellery Quarter, ensuring authenticity, while select components produced in 2022 proudly bear the rare Jubilee hallmark, celebrating Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee year.

Bentley’s embrace of cutting-edge manufacturing methods is evident beyond the use of gold. The company has invested £3 million to expand its additive manufacturing capabilities at the Crewe factory, allowing for the seamless integration of three-dimensional CAD models into physical automotive artistry. This state-of-the-art technology is not just reserved for aesthetics; it plays a crucial role in Bentley’s forward-thinking approach to vehicle customization, allowing customers to explore a realm of materials that include aerospace-inspired titanium and eco-conscious leather alternatives crafted from coffee roasting by-products. The Batur is more than a vehicle—it is an evolving canvas, designed to reflect the unique identity of its owner with limitless possibilities.

The Batur itself is a defining moment in Bentley’s design philosophy, marking the dawn of a new era for the brand. With only 18 examples ever created, it serves as a bridge between Bentley’s heritage of handcrafted excellence and its vision for the future. Its success has inspired further exclusivity, leading to the introduction of the Batur Convertible—the most powerful W12-powered drop-top Grand Tourer in Bentley’s history. Limited to just 16 units, the Batur Convertible builds upon the legacy of the Bacalar barchetta and the Batur coupe, cementing Mulliner’s position as the ultimate destination for bespoke automotive design.

Since the Roaring Twenties, Mulliner has been at the forefront of crafting extraordinary Bentleys, delivering some of the most exquisite and iconic vehicles ever built. Today, it continues this legacy by offering a highly personalized commissioning experience, working hand-in-hand with customers to create one-of-a-kind vehicles that exemplify the very essence of craftsmanship and individuality. ‘The Black Rose’ Batur is the perfect testament to this philosophy – with its groundbreaking use of 3D-printed gold, unparalleled customization, and unwavering commitment to sustainable luxury.
