As a way of promoting creative marketing along with the ceramic arts, the Kinmen Ceramics Factory collaborated with a liquor company to produce a fire hydrant-shaped bottle, meant to convey that “extinguishing” anger calms the mind. The factory manager said he got the idea because he used to be a firefighter. Not only that, but fire hydrants also have an uninterrupted supply of water. As water symbolizes wealth, it signifies hope for a boundless flow of prosperity.

Bottles of all shapes and sizes stand at attention in display cabinets. But hold on, why is this one here? Fire hydrants are supposed to be outside. This is actually a liquor bottle specially designed by the Kinmen Ceramics Factory.

We wanted to make a liquor bottle customized for a profession. Since I used to be a firefighter, we thought about how a firefighter might design a bottle. Fire hydrants play a crucial role in neighborhood safety by ensuring a continuous supply of water.

Looking to promote creative marketing along with the ceramic arts, the Kinmen Ceramics Factory designed this special liquor bottle shaped like a fire hydrant. The manager said the production team hopes that every product can convey a story and a feeling, beyond just functioning as a container. The factory has been producing more creative products in recent years, hoping they will get more use in people’s daily lives to showcase the charm of Kinmen craftsmanship in the home.

We plan to release another two products this year. One of them will be a tetrapod. Tetrapods brake waves to keep the shore peaceful. It also has another meaning. Since it resembles a rice dumpling, we plan to release it for Dragon Boat Festival. The other one is for Mid-Autumn Festival. We’ll release a moon cake bottle. We’re still developing both and negotiating with the Kinmen Kaoliang Liquor company.

Apart from making uniquely shaped liquor bottles, the factory said it plans to keep pushing creative boundaries by integrating Kinmen’s cultural heritage, lifestyles, and diverse aesthetics to develop ceramics rich in narrative and cultural value.
