• (i) Blowing an article (601) in a mold cavity (602), forming an integral neck portion (603) and at least one recess proximal thereto;
• (ii) Opening the mold (605) via a first displacement of at least one first portion (606) of the mold (605) proximal to the neck portion (603), and a subsequent at least second displacement of at least two segments (616, 617) of a second portion (607) of the mold (605) wherein said first and second displacements are about a first and second plane and further wherein said first and second planes are perpendicular relative to each other;
• wherein said mold (605) comprises at least two parting lines (613) forming an angle of greater than about 10° at the point of intersection and wherein said at least two parting lines (613) are perpendicular to each other and wherein said mold (605) comprises at least one third parting line (614) dividing said at least one first portion (606) of the mold (605) into at least one right first portion (609) and at least one left first portion (610);
• and
• (iii) Ejecting the finished article (601).
