About Post Herbum Embalatge

Las èrbas entièras cultivadas en Lituània son devengudas una inspiracion per crear un embalatge exclusiu, coma tanben lo desir d'exprimir visualament lo produit organic e rafinat. La forma inabituala e al meteis temps simpla del triangle permet de revelar un produit simple dins un embalatge mai interessant. Las colors blanc lachós e marron indican l'ecologia e la naturalitat de las èrbas. Las illustracions esveltas e la reserva dins l'estil soslinhan la valor de las èrbas que son recuelhidas a la man. Dossament e amb precision coma lo produit fragil el meteis.
