tonno (original)

Tinned tuna isn’t exactly known for its beauty—especially when it’s crammed into a can and lost among endless rows on a supermarket shelf. But in a glass jar, it tells a different story.

Here, fillets of delicate orange-pink flesh drift in salty brine, suspended in their own little subaquatic world. Not quite as hypnotic as fish gliding through an aquarium, perhaps, but still quietly mesmerizing—preserved in perfect stillness, waiting to be brought back to life in some future dish.

The blue foil label, torn just enough to show it’s been handled, contrasts against the soft hues within. A simple pantry staple, transformed into something worth a second glance.
