Production Technology

This wine bottle is made of ceramics. Nine lines on the front represent the number 9, and five lines on the back represent the number 5. The ancients believed that nine is the largest of the odd numbers and has the highest significance, while five in the middle of the Yang number means harmony. Once the two numbers are combined, it means dignity, harmony and auspiciousness.

Research
