fortune leaves
Juried Senior Showcase SCAD, 2023
This fortune telling-based company creates wine-infused teas, with a collection that includes peach tea with red wine, jasmine tea with rose wine, and green tea with white wine. The bottles themselves can be used to read the customer’s future as well. The tea is left to strain through the neck of the bottle, leaving leaves at the bottom when finished. The neck and base of the bottle disconnect, allowing the leaves to be read and the bottle to be used again.
Each bottle includes their own method for fortune telling. There is crystal reading (lithomancy), card reading (cartomancy), and palm reading (chiromancy). Each is visually personified with a character that is relevant towards their respective fortune telling method; a crane is with cartomancy since they are both reflective of air, a bull is with lithomancy since both are in association with the Earth, and a spider is with chiromancy to showcase palm reading and the many arms of the arachnid.
