The Fun of Wine Accessories - "Step by Step to Rise," the Gift is in the Wine, the Meaning Within

Throughout history, drinking vessels have always been the original carriers of wine culture. With drinking vessels, the act of drinking becomes poetic.

The "Step-by-Step Ascension" wine set is composed of two parts, which combine the shapes of ancient wine vessels, the "Zun" (also known as "Zun") and the "Gu". The upper part is based on the "Gu" wine vessel from the Shang Dynasty, while the lower part is inspired by the "Thousand-Year Ancient Well" at the ancient well brewing site park. In ancient times, different wine vessels represented various social ranks and cultural connotations.

The character "zun," meaning to hold wine in both hands ("酒" from "酉"), metaphorically signifies "honorable" and "respectful." When used as a wine vessel, it represents the host's respect for the guest. The top cup is round, while the bottom cup is square, embodying the Chinese cultural concept of "the sky is round and the earth is square." The "Step by Step Higher" wine set as a whole conveys good fortune and blessings, expressing well-wishes to the drinker.

"123: From Nothing to Something, Aligning with the Great Path"

"From nothing, comes something; from something, comes existence." The "Step by Step Ascending" wine set, a patented product created by the Chairman of Gujing Group, Liang Jinhui, draws inspiration from the philosophical thought in Laozi's "Tao Te Ching" - "The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, and Three gives birth to all things."

"Everything arises from something, and something arises from nothing." Laozi's "Tao" embodies the essence of the universe, boundless and endless, capable of containing all things under heaven and earth. Similarly, the "Step by Step Rising" drinking set is designed to be small on the outside, hollow in the middle, generous in pour, and never full. The Tao has an infinite capacity for包容, encompassing the cosmos and all things within it, while wine has an infinite capacity to hold the joys, sorrows, and griefs of life. People should also possess infinite tolerance, remaining humble and never complacent.
