Description
This stamp takes a decidedly symbolic approach to representing mineral waters, using the shape of the amphora as a direct reference to the storage, transport and diffusion of water since Antiquity. The stylized flow suggests the purity, continuity and generosity of the resource, while the modern composition reflects a desire to include it in a contemporary vision of progress. In the Tunisian context, the amphora evokes both Mediterranean heritage and historical commercial exchanges, while affirming the current importance of mineral water as a national product, strategic resource and key element of the collective well-being and economic identity of the country.
