Decorative Glass

Decorative glass incorporates both color and design and can be accomplished with many types and patterns of glass, as well as with tinted interlayers.

  • Glass Options

Many types of decorative patterned glasses are available.  Not all patterns are suitable for bending or laminating.  It is important to review the desired patterns with us to confirm fabrication details.  Glass with textured patterns may affect visibility and the passage of light.

  • Interlayer Options

of the design team.  Interlayers can provide translucency as well as color.  Opacity can be achieved by the use of opaque white or black interlayers.
