This modification of a classic "clamshell" box combined with Jason's "advertising" graphics made for a dual purpose structure that shows off the five bottles of Jason's hand made ink while protecting the bottles in transit. Jason liked how the reference to the clamshell box's usual use in libraries to house valuable books went sympathetically with the notion of the ink as a material in the creation of manuscripts both ancient and modern.
