GROW
Eternal fruit.
A personal packaging project that gives glass new value: a jar made to last.
The jam jar almost always ends up in the bin. GROW is made to stay.
GROW sets out to give packaging and glass new value with a jar worth keeping. When the jam is finished, the jar is turned over: its base holds a candle and the container becomes a candle holder.
The glass swells and narrows along its profile, like fruit as it ripens. Every angle shows a different silhouette.
Of jam, in smoked grey glass.
Standard screw neck: works with market closures and automated filling.
A hand-tied cord holds the label, with no glue on the glass.
Jar, label and lid
Smoked glass that accepts more kinds of recycled cullet. An aluminium lid in brushed bronze. A letterpress paper label tied with esparto.
A container that stays becomes an object.
Let us design something that stays.
