Packaging Design by John Vassos

John Vassos did packaging design mostly in the early 1930s for cosmetics companies like Armand company run by his friend Carl Weeks. His cleanlined glass bottles led the company into the modern age and marked his entry into the field of industrial design.  These gorgeous cubist boxes were also created for the company.  They would be a joy to open with their detailed print and striking green color. I love the little soft tassel on the box on the front on the right attached with a small pearl. Such an intriguing shape, they look like little presents. I wish I could them today.
