About arcAdia Italian Vodka (Concept Bottle) Vodkaflaske

arcAdia er en konceptflaske til italiensk vodka. Flasken er fremstillet af glas og har en polygonal base med en diameter på 10 centimeter og en højde på 33 centimeter. Den mangesidede form er nem at holde og at hælde fra. Der findes tre versioner: et mat cyanfarvet glas, en sølvfinish med 70 procent opacitet og et sort glas med 85 procent opacitet, som stadig lader vodkaen inde i flasken skinne igennem. En gaveemballage i let metal åbnes ved at dreje den øverste del, som forbliver lukket under transport. Formen er tiltænkt at fremstå enkel og stemningsfuld.
