About arcAdia Italian Vodka (Concept Bottle) Bouteille de vodka

arcAdia est une bouteille conceptuelle destinée à une vodka italienne. Réalisée en verre, elle présente une base polygonale de 10 centimètres de diamètre pour une hauteur de 33 centimètres. Sa forme à multiples facettes en facilite la prise en main et le service. Trois versions sont proposées : un verre cyan uni, une finition argentée à 70 pour cent d'opacité et un verre noir à 85 pour cent d'opacité laissant néanmoins entrevoir la vodka à l'intérieur. Un coffret cadeau en métal léger s'ouvre par rotation de sa partie supérieure, qui demeure fermée pendant le transport. La forme se veut à la fois simple et évocatrice.
