About Golden Seasons Brick Arbatos pakuotė

„Golden Seasons Brick“ – tai suspaustos Pu-erh arbatos plytelių pakuotės dizainas. Išorinė įmautė pagaminta iš senovinės tekstūros specialaus popieriaus su įspaustais antspaudų motyvais ir aukso folijos štampavimu. Viduje dviejų sluoksnių stalčiaus tipo dėžutėje iš auksinio kartono ir pilko kartono laikoma aštuoniolika aukso folija apvyniotų plytelių, po devynias kiekviename dėkle. Apsaugos nuo smūgių lizdai saugo plyteles kelionės metu. Kiekviena plytelė sveria keturis gramus – šis skaičius kinų kalboje atkartoja keturių metų laikų žodžius. Dėklai yra keičiami, todėl dėžutę galima papildyti ir naudoti pakartotinai.

Unique Properties
Golden Seasons Brick Cultural narratives empower functionality. The name vintage (homophone for "cultural relics" ) embodies temporal depth through three imprints: mountain veins, tea leaves, and fingerprints. The 4g brick (phonetically "Four Seasons" ) is gold-foil sealed as a time capsule. Imperial seal engravings elevate tea brewing into a collectible ritual, redefining Guochao (China's cultural renaissance) tea experiences for modern mobility.
Dimensions & Packaging
80mmx80mmx40mm box with dual-layer structure (2 trays x 9 bricks). The 9x2 configuration mirrors the Eastern philosophy of (9x9 returning to unity), symbolizing cyclical renewal.

Production Technology
Outer Sleeve​ Antique-textured specialty paper with debossed imperial seals. Gold foil stamps highlight the Vintage brand and tea brick details.
Inner Structure​ Dual-layer drawer box (gold cardstock + eco greyboard) holds 9 gold-foil-wrapped tea bricks per layer. Anti-shock slots prevent breakage during travel. Refillable design reduces packaging waste.
Design Challenge
Vintage resolves the ritual-portability paradox through a threefold symbolic system (mountain/tea/fingerprint textures). We translated imperial seals into tactile geometric patterns, paired with a 4g brick (phonetic "Four Seasons" in Chinese) that bridges nature, tea, and human craft.
Research
Vintage addresses tea-drinking challenges for mobile youth by reinterpreting Qing emperors’ seal motifs (Qianlong/Yongzheng) into minimalist icons. The 4g brick, phonetically echoing “Four Seasons” in Chinese, is gold-foil wrapped as a cultural time capsule. Its modular system (replaceable FSC-certified trays) enables 20-second brewing anywhere, boosting reorders by 300% while educating sustainable habits through packaging reusability and material circularity.
Inspiration
In fast paced urban life and frequent travel, modern individuals seek moments of respite through natural rituals that soothe the body and mind.
Vintage embraces "Tea Accompanies the Seasons," distilling the rich flavor of Yunnan ancient tree Pu-erh and the serene aesthetics of Eastern artifacts into a 4g portable "Four Seasons Gold Brick." The "4g" cleverly symbolizes the seasons, allowing the tea’s aroma to flow with nature’s rhythms, seamlessly integrating into work, home, and travel.
Project Duration
Project Timeline: Initiated in Shenzhen, China (September 2024) and delivered as a market-ready packaging system by January 2025
Operation Flow
Ritual Reboot​ Removing the belly band becomes a ceremonial unboxing act, mirroring Gen-Z's cultural pride in China's heritage.
Functional Luxury​ 18 golden bricks arranged in vault-like precision. 20-second brew ritual balances extravagance and efficiency.
