Bamboo Slips
A Chinese liquor bottle design inspired by ancient bamboo slips used in documenting Chinese culture and the Cang-Shan liquor distillation process has been unveiled. The black exterior exudes purity and depth, while a Chinese poem carved on bamboo slips inside adds sophistication. All materials used are sustainable and reusable, presenting a solution to the recycling dilemma in the liquor industry. This design blends calligraphy, bamboo slips, and an intricately shaped bottle to revive the reading and drinking cultures central to Asian society.
