About Guojiao 1573 Baijiu Packaging

Guojiao 1573 is a limited-edition packaging design for a premium Chinese baijiu. The design draws on the loong, an auspicious figure in Chinese culture. Three-dimensional sculpting presents the loong across both the bottle and the outer packaging, and parts of the figure stay concealed within the forms. The bottle is made with an ancient kiln-fired ceramic technique and is shaped by hand. The package measures 205 by 170 by 295 millimetres. The calm and refined form invites the consumer to explore and open the package.
