I need some help in choosing which bottle looks better. The left has the pattern (heat) printed, while the right one is laser etched. Any feedback is very much welcomed!

One thing you can do is apply a wash (basically diluted paint) over the laser etched sections, and wipe away the excess. This will allow you to color the etched sections that might look better then the printed version.
OP should try this on the right one and report back. I didnt even see the pattern there until they pointed it out, but think the left one is too visible. If they could find a happy medium between the two, I’d pick that one.
Right, 100% . Left is undeniably tacky, sorry. (I’d even say right was better with no etchings at all, or simpler ones)
Personally I prefer the right one, but I like everything darker.
Are you asking us because you don’t know which one you like more? A trick that might work is throwing a coin and then seeing if you’re disappointed with the result. (I’m not joking!)
the one on the right. simpler is better
Right one for me, left feels a little cheap IMO
Right for me too. Left looks tacky
The right one definitely looks like it would be more high end.
Design, in my mind, depends on context. Given the light colored wallpaper behind I think the left looks better here, but may be out of place in a different setting.
The bottles are meant to stay in a bathroom (the photo is taken in a shower niche).
While I do like the pop of the left one more, will it stand up to repeated washing? Or will the pattern wear away or rub off?
I’m more inclined to like a laser etched glass because the pattern doesn’t wear away.
Overall, I don’t know that I love the look of the brown container itself, though.
I suppose some wear off will occur in time, but the pattern should not rub off despite repeated washing at least for a few years. Then again, you’re right that the laser etched bottle will remain the same forever. I went with an amber glass because the formula inside may be unstable and react if UV hits it.
I like the left (guess Im tacky according to the comments, lol) but rhe etched will last the life of the bottle. The heat printed stuff comes off over time.
it depends too much on context. Depending on the bathroom, it will be either.
The right will fit nice into more designs, but as is, I like the left better.
The one without the print.
Left one, I didn’t even see the etching. Might as well not be there.
Then what’s the difference - why pick it?
Well the left one has a very visible pattern, hence I picked it.
Oh I see you meant you didn’t even see the etching on the right. Haha thought you meant the very visible etching on the left, and I was confused…
I like the second one better. The white is a little too much for a dark bottle.
The heat printed is more visible, but I like the subtlety of the etched version.
My wife says the etched flowers, with the white “B” at the top. :)
