London based approved fabricators Zone Creations helped stun festive visitors to Covent Garden last year with the creation of a huge clear Perspex® acrylic perfume bottle for Tiffany & Co.
The giant Tiffany’s perfume bottle was created from several CNC-milled blocks of clear Perspex® acrylic block. Four sides, a top section and two laminated layers for the bottom formed the main body of the perfume bottle. The lid was made from three more clear Perspex® acrylic layers carefully laminated together.
All joins were glued using Zone’s secret technique to ensure bubble-free joins. The whole acrylic bottle was sanded and highly polished to regain the magnificent clear finish needed.
The snuffer-cap was created from multiple tubes; laser-cut parts which were sealed together and vacuum-metallised to get the high-gloss chrome finish. A blue fabric collar was applied with laser-etched and plastic letter detailing.
The end result weighed around 150kg and sat in a giant Perspex® acrylic sphere in Covent Garden complete with fake snow inside creating a huge snow globe.
