You would want an agreement with the manufacturer specifying that you retain copyright in the design. Then once you are using it in trade, register it with the trademark office.

It is, almost certainly, registered as a trademark.
Trademark copyright?
A trademark is a word, phrase, symbol, and/or design that identifies and distinguishes the source of the goods of one party from those of others. A service mark is a word, phrase, symbol, and/or design that identifies and distinguishes the source of a service rather than goods. Some examples include brand names, slogans, and logos. The term "trademark" is often used in a general sense to refer to both trademarks and service marks.
How do you find copyright on perfume bottles?

It is more likely that the bottle would be protected by trademark as trade dress (i.e. packaging), or even a design patent. Copyright protection is comparatively unlikely.

What is a trademark used for?
A trademark is a way to copyright your business or organization so that other people cannot use your name as their own. A trademark is a really good thing to get if you are trying to patent a new invension or design for a new or old product.
Can you copyright a design idea?
A copyright is a document granting exclusive right to copy, publish and sell literary or musical or artistic work. You need a patent to protect a design idea. You can go to www.uspto.gov to undertake the patent process; however, it is recommended that you consult a patent attorney. You may copyright some types of designs, such as the design of a building, sculpture, web page, computer program or a cartoon character. Other designs are best protected with a trademark, where the design is used in association with your goods and services. A design of a mask work, for an integrated circuit, can be registered in the copyright office, as can the design for the hull of a vessel. Finally, as suggested above, if your design for the ornamental appearance of an object meets various criteria, you might qualify for a design patent. In fact, you may combine copyright, trademark and patent protection on the same design, if it qualifies. There are limitations of each type of protection. For example, a copyright cannot protect any functional aspect of an otherwise ornamental design, a trademark only protects a design when used on a product or service, and a functional patent only lasts 20 years or 14 for a design patent. The costs and jurisdictional scope for each type of protection also vary widely.
Can you patent a design with a national flag incorporated into it?
Perhaps you mean "copyright" or "trademark", since patents do not generally cover any decorative designs.

What if own design do you need license or copyright?

What are four ways that the government provides intellectual property rights?
The main types of intellectual property protection are copyright, trademark, and patent, all of which can be divided up into smaller categories. In some countries, "related rights" or "neighboring rights" are a significant subset of copyright; patents are often divided into utility, design, and plant patents, depending on what they protect; trade dress is an important subset of trademark.
