Red and White Spiral Vase

Design details: Red and White Spiral Vase

Twisting ribs join a red lower body to a pale upper section, creating a two-tone spiral profile. The transition between colors is a separate visual requirement from the underlying geometry.

Specify a color reference and the location of the transition rather than relying on a photograph alone. Deep grooves can collect finishing residue, and multiple colors may require separate masking or assembly steps.

Features to review on a similar design

• Define the two-color boundary on the model or drawing
• Clean recessed spiral grooves
• Assess sealing or a liner for any liquid-holding use

MJF polymer design review

MJF is a powder-bed polymer process suited to functional prototypes and repeated parts. For a similar design, consider material selection, local wall transitions, small openings and access for depowdering. Define mating dimensions on a drawing and check assemblies after the final finish, since smoothing and coating can influence clearances. A gallery image does not identify the exact polymer grade or demonstrate mechanical test results.

Dyeing considerations

A dyed appearance depends on the substrate and finishing route. Specify a color reference and review a sample when color matching matters. Clean small openings before finishing, and assess color consistency across thin and thick regions. Dyeing does not remove the underlying surface texture.
