Selezione 836 is an identity project that tells a story of roots, time, and care.
It originates from Andrea’s decision, at the age of thirty-six, to devote himself to eight hundred olive trees, transforming a family legacy into a contemporary vision. The concept balances memory and present, drawing inspiration from the warm light of the landscapes between the Castelli Romani and the Agro Pontino.
Materiality plays a central role: Stracciatela paper, natural and recycled, combined with gold foil, micro-engraving and sand-effect screen printing, creates a tactile experience that evokes the earth and manual craftsmanship.
The bottle, borrowed from the spirits world, introduces a contemporary contrast, while the dark green glass serves a functional purpose, preserving the oil’s qualities. The Wengè wood anti-refill cap completes the project.
A balance between tradition and modernity, where every element contributes to a coherent and sensory narrative.
