Bentley and Boodles Introduce New Mulliner Specifications
Bentley and Boodles present new Mulliner interior specifications inspired by jewellery design, now available across all models. Explore details and availability.
Bentley has turned a one-off jewel-inspired concept into a scalable luxury option, bringing Boodles’ diamond design language into its entire model range.
The second phase of the collaboration between Bentley and British jeweller Boodles introduces two new bespoke specifications — Standard and Dark. Developed by Mulliner, these configurations are now available across all Bentley models. Unlike the 2024 project, which existed as a single car, the concept is now accessible to customers through official retailers.
The foundation of this expansion lies in the 2024 Bentley Continental GTC ‘Be Boodles’. The one-off model combined an Anthracite and Linen exterior with Powder Pink accents and featured extensive handcrafted detailing. Inside, a repeating ‘Be Boodles’ stitching pattern required hundreds of thousands of stitches, while the centre console incorporated an 18-carat white gold element set with diamonds. Materials extended to rare finishes, including stone veneer dating back around 200 million years. The car was sold on the night of its reveal, highlighting strong demand for such bespoke craftsmanship.
This demand led to the broader rollout. Elements of Boodles’ design language — from signature motifs to jewellery-inspired detailing — are now integrated into Bentley interiors. The Standard specification focuses on lighter tones with subtle pink accents, while the Dark version introduces a more contrasting aesthetic with silver and chrome highlights. Both interpretations translate fine jewellery design into automotive form.
The first example of this new phase is the Bentayga EWB Azure. Already positioned around rear passenger comfort, the extended wheelbase model features enhanced seating and a focus on wellbeing. The addition of the Boodles specification elevates this further through materials and detailing previously reserved for one-off creations.
The collaboration brings together two British brands with shared heritage. Founded in Liverpool in 1798, Boodles remains a family-run jeweller known for high-quality diamonds and designs such as the Raindance ring, now part of the V&A Museum collection. Bentley, based in Crewe, combines traditional craftsmanship with modern engineering. In this project, those approaches converge in both material choice and execution.
The shift from a single bespoke car to a configurable specification marks a change in how such collaborations are offered. Deliveries of the first customer cars with the new specification are scheduled for 2026.
