Inspired by the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty, the packaging for this series blends traditional culture with contemporary design, bestowing a unique Eastern elegance upon the tea. Its minimalist and graceful form eschews intricate ornamentation, transforming the tea from a mere gustatory experience into an expression of a refined lifestyle aesthetic.

The color palette for this series is drawn from the renowned porcelain glazes of the Song Dynasty. We have selected classic hues such as Plum Green, Moon White, Sky Blue,and Tea Brown, each thoughtfully paired with a specific type of tea. Every color is imbued with its own symbolism, enhancing product recognition while enriching it with profound cultural meaning. Plum Green evokes the freshness of spring tea; Moon White represents a purity as serene as moonlight; and Sky Blue mirrors the clarity of a scholar's mind. This union of color and tea character not only makes each product distinct but also enriches the tea-drinking experience with a deep sense of cultural heritage and ritual.

The packaging features artwork that integrates the artistry of Song Dynasty painting. Its circular gift box takes its form from the traditional round fan (tuan shan), symbolizing reunion and harmony. Adorning the lid are gongbi-style paintings, characterized by meticulous brushwork and an understated, elegant palette. These scenes, depicting goldfish, lotus ponds, flora, and tea wares, embody the beautiful aspirations for a life of ease, refined grace, and scholarly communion. The act of opening the box is akin to unfurling a Song Dynasty scroll painting, allowing the consumer to experience the refined atmosphere of a poetic Eastern lifestyle, even before the tea is brewed.

The series employs a classic lid-and-base box structure, which ensures both sturdiness and durability. Inside, meticulously designed compartments are crafted to separate each compressed tea, prevent collision, and provide convenient access. The gift box itself boasts a minimalist yet elegant aesthetic with a refined texture. In terms of craftsmanship, the packaging transcends the limitations of traditional pulp materials.
