Caldera
Packaging that encapsulates the brand's story.
Caldera, a luxurious chilli-infused olive oil hailing from the heart of Naples, sought to capture the rich history of their home region. The creators of Caldera turned to Studio Unbound for their expertise in encapsulating the essence of fire and stone that once rained down on Naples during the famous eruption of Mount Vesuvius.
Studio Unbound aptly named the brand Caldera, after discovering the word that signifies the large cauldron-like shape formed when a volcano erupts. This name served as a perfect metaphor, representing the vessel that contains the fiery hot oil within. The Caldera bottle itself is moulded in terracotta; a material traditionally used in ancient Rome for bottling olive oil. The unique shape of the bottle and design was inspired by a fortunate archaeological find—an olive oil bottle from 79 A.D. that was preserved beneath a layer of molten rock. To add the perfect finishing touch, the stopper is formed from carved crystallised volcanic rock, elegantly sealed with a tight cork.
The result is a refillable branded bottle design that not only pays homage to the historical significance of the region but also adds a touch of elegance to any kitchen. The Caldera bottle is a testament to the brand's commitment to quality and its connection to the captivating story of Naples' volcanic past.
