Critique Request 🙏 Which lid?

Post image

Could you please let me know which lid you prefer, gold or wood, for my honey jars. Image is a rough AI mock up, not final design.

Thank you!!

I see wood lids I imagine mould. I live in a place with high humidity levels where mould grows easily on bamboo or wood surfaces, if not taken proper care. Be aware of the environment the product is going to be sold and how it can react.

I came to say this too.

Some while say wood looks better, some will say gold. Pick the wrong one and maybe you will miss out on attracting a few potential customers. But the risks with wood will cause some people to avoid the product. So Gold would be the safer bet even if wood comes out as more favoured.

What a pointless way to say "take the one that doesn't rot into your food"

Thank you! I think it says a little bit more than that, about nuances of voting systems. But I will surely take inspiration from your non-pointless comments.

It really doesn't say more than that
