Sua Maesta Balsamic Vinegar Packaging Embodies an Old World Aesthetic

— March 11, 2011 — Marketing
There are certain cooking ingredients that have been used for generations, and the Sua Maesta Balsamic Vinegar packaging truly symbolizes the product's timeless existence. Branded to look like one of those aging luxury bottles at the top of your pantry, these black glass condiment jars have the appeal of a superior-sourced recipe and a careful artisan presentation.

Designed by Onthetable, the acidic liquid's image is capped with a linen cloth printed with inky calligraphic text. Tied over the lid with twine, the fabric is tightened around the bottle with a seal-imprinted ebony bead. The transparent jar itself divulges its graceful quirks, making the Sua Maesta Balsamic Vinegar packaging appear as authentic as if it were discovered in an old Mediterranean cellar.
