The concept of the Champagne Chest is set to not only appear aesthetically pleasing, but also serves as a phenomenal element for setting an amicable mood that would be a great assistance in strengthening familial bonds and entertaining business associates. The design reflects Rolls Royce’s long-standing heritage of genius craftsmanship and intricate care to detail.

The outer lid serves as a multipurpose application when doubling as a Tudor Oak Wood serving tray with a laser-cut stainless steel inlay. Furthermore, Hidden underneath the fine, lacquered Tudor Oak table is four cotton napkins sporting the ‘RR’ ensignia.
To provide those seeking a genuine epicurean experience, two hammocks bedecked in ‘Hotspur Red’ Rolls Royce leather extend from either side of the Chest automatically to hold some of their favorites: be it champagne, caviar, canapés, among other gourmet specialities. The Chest also offers Thermal Champagne Coolers, made out of black anodised aluminium and carbon fibre, that exposes the ‘RR’ ensignia and guarantees the champagne stays at just the right temperature.

It is an unstoppable combination to have when paired with a chilling, yet refreshing glass of champagne. Additionally, Two Mother-of-Pearl spoons with handles of anodised aluminium are sheltered above the hammock, which was added to prevent lessening the tasteful flavor of the caviar. Lastly, three porcelain bowls stored in a matching thermal capsule is an option when partaking in more than one type of champagne.
