About Yongxi Portaencens de Doble Funció

Aquest treball va ser dissenyat pel Sr. En Ke basat en l'antiga cultura reial xinesa. L'embalatge està redissenyat amb els elements del patró de núvols de la Ciutat Prohibida, i l'obra d'art en conjunt és com un ivori, encarnant plenament la bellesa de l'Orient. En obrir la tapa superior, hi ha un portaencens de phoebe daurat embolicat en paper ecològic. Aquest disseny trenca amb el tradicional, integrant dues funcions de combustió i emmagatzematge en un sol producte, motiu pel qual va ser patentat a la Xina. Ha guanyat premis de disseny internacionals alhora que ha rebut una excel·lent acollida del mercat!
