There are two ways to do this.
When you use matte PP, the line marking is smooth and unaffected.
1) Based on this principle, any design you make on a matte surface is smooth (curved vase)
2) You can hot emboss the PP film or buy it already with this finish. (used to finish synthetic leather or PVC)
In the case of these vases, I bought the alternative material with this finish and I'm already thinking about assembling a small equipment for transferring the drawing to the smooth film. That way I can customize them, according to my own design and in a localized way.
