When we met our client for the first time, he described his product as a handmade wine, of which there would be just a small batch of bottles. Small batch is, in fact, the product brand. We focused on the concept ‘handmade product’, and we found our inspiration in a small and simple tool which usually goes unnoticed but is used by every other artisan: the pencil. Using the bottle’s shape, we reproduced the appearance of a well-known pencil brand. Our design is silk printed on the bottle, which creates a balanced combination. The result is a funny and visually attractive metaphor that will stand out from the shelves and will catch the buyer’s attention in a glance.
