the Labelmaker: Metal Wine Labels

https://www.thelabelmaker.eu/portfolio/metal-wine-labels/

I decided to make a classic oval label. My original idea for it was to reach 2-3 millimeters thickness. I really wanted it to have different levels of embossing on it to help me highlight the more important elements. I spent a lot of time wondering exactly what color it should be – I started with copper, then silver and finally, of course, gold. It turned out that we all like a more austere, clean and even conservative look, so we settled on silver. Here I ran into the other problem. I didn’t want a plain silver finish – I wanted a scratch patina, I was looking for an authentic look and bold character.
