One-of-a-kind Rolls-Royce Phantom Dentelle is inspired by couture lace

TimesLIVEa day ago
A filigree lace-like base — a unique style of jewellery invented in the Middle East — forms a triple-run stitch, creating a mesh structure intertwined with satin stitch that shapes the floral elements with a silk-like sheen, while raised accents echo the original pearl details. In total, the piece comprises more than 160,000 stitches.
A waterfall section between the rear seats continues the shimmering floral theme with a delicate embroidery echoing the botanical detail and comprising about 70,000 stitches. The speaker grilles of the Phantom are also finished in rose gold, complementing the embroidery tones. The interior is completed with Sunrise and Grace white leathers, embroidered 'RR' monograms on the front and rear headrests and a Piano white veneer.
The Phantom Dentelle's exterior is presented in a two-tone finish, the lower body in Crystal over arctic white and the upper body in Crystal over Palais nemasker dawn — a colour reserved for the commissioning client's exclusive use. A hand-painted motif of a leafy branch with pearl 'berries' reflects the artwork theme inside.
The car rides on 22" fully polished disc wheels with body-coloured centres and Arctic white centre pinstripes. The polished Pantheon grille is crowned with the Spirit of Ecstasy in rose gold; as are the engraved treadplates.

Thelo Aasgaard to Rangers transfer leaves Luton boss 'disappointed' as quickfire exit forces tough admission

The Norway international has been snapped up by Gers just less than six months after arriving at Kenilworth Road Luton town boss Matt Bloomfield admits he is bittersweet after losing star man Thelo Aaasgaard to Rangers. The Liverpool-born midfielder only arrived at Kennilworth Road from Wigan Athletic back in January but made an impressive impact in the second half of the season, despite his side's relegation to EFL League One. ‌ Those performances also saw Aasgaard win international recognition at senior level with Norway - who he was eligble to play for through his father's side of the family and marked his first cap with a goal in 5-0 hammering of Moldova back in March. ‌ The 23-year-old is on the move again after being snapped up by Russell Martin and Rangers, signing a four-year-deal at Ibrox with the Light Blues paying Luton £3.5million for his services. And while he is chuffed for the player, Bloomfield can't help but feel disappointed about the playmaker's all-too-brief stay in north-west London. Speaking after their friendly victory against Boreham Wood on Saturday, he said: "I think it's a bit bittersweet for us. We are obviously disappointed to see Thelo go, of course we are. "But it's also a proud moment as a football club to take a boy from League One in January and within six months he has made his international debut where he scored and he has now got a transfer to an incredible football club who will be playing in the Champions League qualifiers. ‌ "We are obviously proud of what he has gone onto achieve in the short time he was with us but we are disappointed he has left. "I think ultimately it was inevitable it was going to happen with the amount of interest in him and his international manager's desire for him to move on as well. "It certainly didn't help but we understand the situation and have to focus on our future now." ‌ Aasgaard - who will be line to make his Rangers debut later this month in the crunch Champions League second round qualifier against Panathinaikos - revealed he couldn't make his mind up any quicker when he learned of the interest. He told the club's website: 'I am delighted to be here. I have been waiting for it, but I am glad to get it over the line. 'When I heard about Rangers I was over the moon. I have played against the manager's teams a few times and I always pictured myself in his team and to be here now is really good. ‌ 'It was an easy decision, I love the number of games here, it is like the EFL and I love playing. The stature and history is enough as well."

Jharkhand: 4 dead, 4 injured after portion of coal mine collapses in Ramgarh

Ramgarh:Four people were killed and four others injured after part of an abandoned coal mine collapsed during "illegal" mining in Jharkhand's Ramgarh district in the early hours of Saturday, an official said. The incident happened at the Karma project in Mahua Tangri in Kuju Outpost area. "Four bodies have been recovered from the accident site, while four injured were rescued," Sub-Divisional Officer (SDO) of Ramgarh Anurag Kumar Tiwari told PTI. The deceased were identified as Md Imtiyaz, Rameshwar Manjhi, Wakil Karmali and Nirmal Munda. All of them hailed from nearby villages. The relief and rescue operation has been called off after the debris was removed, a police officer said. "There is no possibility of any person being trapped inside as the debris has been removed," Ramgarh's SDPO Parmeshwar Prasad said. SP Ajay Kumar said the abandoned mine belonged to Central Coalfields Ltd. "The company has its own security personnel to stop such illegal activities. We extended our cooperation to CCL after we received the information," he said. A section of villagers demonstrated near the CCL Karma Project office to protest the incident and demand compensation. Accusing CCL of negligence, the protestors demanded compensation of ₹ 20 lakh each for the kin of the deceased and ₹ 5 lakh for the injured. "The company left the mine open. Poor villagers went to extract coal for cooking fuel, and the incident happened. If there was barricading and adequate security in the mine, this accident could have been avoided," Md Kalam, a villager, said. A meeting of the villagers and CCL management also took place on the compensation. The outcome of it is yet to be known. Kuju police outpost in-charge Ashutosh Kumar Singh said that some villagers were involved in "illegal" mining of coal at the site when the incident happened. The district administration issued a show-cause notice to the CCL management over the incident, officials said. Union Minister Annapurna Devi termed the incident unfortunate and said that the state government should be sensible and immediately take steps to check the recurrence of such incidents. "It appears that the state government is ignorant and it has nothing to do with such incidents. I would urge the state government to take action over such incident," she said. Leader of the Opposition Babulal Marandi of the BJP demanded a high-level probe into the incident. "I am deeply saddened by this news. Many of our labourer brothers are feared to be buried in illegal coal mines. I pray to god for their safety and express my deepest condolences to the bereaved families," he said in a post on X. He also claimed that this was not an accident, but murder. "This is due to the negligence of the corrupt and incompetent government, which turns a blind eye to the illegal business going on in broad daylight," he alleged. Marandi questioned that if the CCL had closed the mine, how the coal mafia was operating there.

Bearman angry at himself for 10-place home grid drop

SILVERSTONE, England :Haas rookie Oliver Bearman had the best qualifying of his fledgling Formula One career at his first home British Grand Prix on Saturday but mostly felt anger and sadness. The 20-year-old was eighth fastest in a car with a new upgrade package but will start 18th after collecting a 10-place grid penalty in final practice for failing to respect red flags. Bearman was also given four penalty points, taking his tally to eight for the 12-month period. Twelve points triggers an automatic race ban. It was the second 10-place drop Bearman has collected in 12 races this season, with the other coming in Monaco. "We actually had a very, very strong qualifying and the car was feeling great, the best it's ever felt for me," he told reporters. "Then, of course, I'm really disappointed in myself because I've let my team down today. "It's not a relief," he said of being able to put in such a performance. "I'm still angry at myself and very sad, but I'm glad at least that we could show the good thing today was that we have a quick car in qualifying trim, which hasn't been the case more recently." The Briton caused the first of two red-flag periods in Saturday's practice at Silverstone when his car shed some bodywork, with the second stoppage due to Sauber's Gabriel Bortoleto crashing. Stewards heard from Bearman after practice and said in a statement he had slowed for the second red flags but accelerated to race pace and entered the pit entry road at 260kph. Bearman then lost control of the car and hit the barriers.
