About Awaken The Queen Within Wijnvat

Awaken The Queen Within is een collectie wijnvaten voor bier, rode wijn en absint. Elke groep put uit het beeld van een beroemde koningin uit de geschiedenis: Hatsjepsoet, Wu Zetian en Irene van Athene. Een bierglas, vaatje en ijstang, een wijnglas, kurkentrekker en decanteerkaraf, en een absintglas, lepels en suikerpot zijn vormgegeven met historische patronen. Holle vormen onthullen het goud van bier, het rood van wijn en het groen van absint, terwijl goud en zwart voornaamheid suggereren. De ingewikkelde detaillering benadrukt een gevoel van ritueel tijdens het gebruik.
