DESIGN STUDY · DG-007
Iris 07 Violet & Silver
Broad shoulders narrow into a sculpted waist before opening onto a clear heel. Violet glass tones frame a silver initial and dark-plum typography; the transparent faceted cap keeps the upper silhouette light.
DESIGN DIRECTION
Let the waist define the composition.
Iris 07 places its identity inside the narrowest usable front area. The lettering remains clear of the side ridges, while the silver I creates a small focal point above the name. A clean glass heel separates the violet body from its base.
Dark plum
A contrasting ink carries IRIS 07, EAU DE PARFUM and the capacity line without a surrounding frame.
Cool silver
A metallic-ink monogram and satin silver collar echo the clear cap’s reflections.
BOTTLE & COMPONENTS
Build around the hourglass profile.
The Hourglass Fragrance Bottle supplies the silhouette reference. Measure the actual front curvature and waist before setting the artwork. Develop the clear faceted cap and its retention insert with the selected pump.
- Glass and capacity
- Curved waist, sculpted sides and clear heel. Confirm nominal fill and neck finish from the selected drawing before approving the 100 ml inscription.
- Decoration area
- Keep both print colours within the central face. Use a conformable pad where the surface curves; qualify registration on the actual bottle.
- Coating boundary
- Mask the heel, mouth and sealing surfaces. Agree the visible colour transition and hidden fixture contact point.
- Closure assembly
- Clear faceted outer cap, fitted insert and silver collar. Check actuator clearance and cap retention together.
PROPOSED DECORATION ROUTE
Keep the violet transparent and the lettering precise.
Qualify coating, two ink colours and curing as one system on the curved glass. Use physical samples to set the final appearance.
- 01
Map the waist
Locate the initial, name and small text inside the usable front sector; separate the silver and plum artwork.
Approval pointApprove a full-size layout and registration datum.
- 02
Clean and mask
Prepare the exterior and protect the mouth, sealing land and clear heel before coating.
Approval pointCheck the mask line on all sides.
- 03
Apply the violet lacquer
Use controlled exterior passes around the shoulders and waist; cure to the coating supplier’s qualified process.
Approval pointCompare hue and transparency on empty and filled samples.
- 04
Print the two colours
Trial pad printing for the plum text and silver I on the cured coating, with a fixture that supports the curved body.
Approval pointCheck fine strokes, metallic coverage and alignment.
- 05
Fit the clear cap
Match the silver collar finish and assemble the cap insert without stressing the transparent shell.
Approval pointInspect clarity, fit and clearance around the actuator.
- 06
Approve the completed pack
Assemble the pump and cap and support the flared base and shoulders in the transport insert.
Approval pointCheck spray, leakage, cap retention and rubbing.
SAMPLING & APPROVAL
Approve the appearance. Validate the complete pack.
Colour through the waist
Inspect the violet across shoulders, waist and thick heel under agreed light. Retain filled and empty reference samples.
Fine print on curved glass
Assess both inks for adhesion, rubbing and fragrance exposure. Check that the small capacity line remains legible.
Cap and glass support
Review cap removal and refitting, shell stress and standing stability. Transport trials must protect the flared corners.
