Familiar at a Glance, Distinct by Design: The New Bastia 30ml

Familiar at a Glance, Distinct by Design: The New Bastia 30ml

28/05/2026

Richmond is pleased to introduce the first bottle in its Bastia range: the 30ml Bastia, a considered new addition to the Signature Collection, designed for premium skincare and wellness brands that want a form with genuine design intent behind it.

A Shape With History.

Few structural forms have endured as long as the arch, and with good reason. In architecture, it distributes weight, draws the eye upward, and holds its composure under pressure. The Bastia translates that logic into glass. Its shoulder rises in a clean curve, resolving into a straight-sided body that gives the silhouette both strength and elegance.

The result is a bottle that reads as familiar at a glance, sitting comfortably within the serum and treatment category, while being clearly distinct from it. Designed, not just formed.

Key Features:

  • Premium glass construction - cosmetic-grade clarity and weight.
  • Post-consumer recycled glass - over 50% PCR content as standard, with no visible difference to clarity or finish.
  • Arch shoulder profile - a considered silhouette with architectural precedent, distinct from standard cylindrical forms.
  • Recessed push-up base - reduces glass volume while maintaining a weighted, substantial feel on shelf and in hand.
  • 20/410 neck - compatible with the full Richmond closure system, from treatment pumps and fine mist atomisers to pipettes and plain caps with reducer insert.
  • Available finishes - clear and acid-etch frosted are available from a single box, with no minimum order. Amber, gloss white, gloss black, matt white, and matt black are available in low minimum runs.
  • Decoration-ready - spray coating, printing, labelling, and foiling all supported for further customisation.

Decoration‑Ready.

The 30ml Bastia is engineered as a canvas. Its clean geometry and cosmetic-grade glass support a wide range of brand expressions, from printing and labelling to foiling and specialist finishes. Clear and acid-etch frosted are available from a single box, making either an easy starting point for sampling, development, or small initial runs. The coloured finishes, amber, gloss white, gloss black, matt white, and matt black, are available in low minimum runs.

The 30ml Bastia is also made with over 50% post-consumer recycled glass as standard. There is no visible difference to the clarity, weight, or finish of the bottle. Sustainability and premium presentation are not a trade-off here.

 

 

Part of a Growing System.

 

The 30ml is the first size in the Bastia range. Further sizes are in future planning, with the intention of allowing brands to build a coherent pack architecture across formats as the collection grows.

The Bastia sits within Richmond's Signature Collections, ready-to-go packaging designed to be open to interpretation. Familiar at a glance. Distinct by design.
