Collaboration with Bent Glass Design
Recently, VM has worked with Bent Glass Design on a refabrication of jewelry cases incorporating flat and curved laminated glass. Low iron was specified to enhance the viewing experience.
While glass is a given as a means of showing off merchandise, laminated glass provides safety and security besides the visibility of standard glass. Laminates are fabricated with a tough interlayer that bonds two plies of glass together. If breakage should occur, the broken glass adheres to the interlayer, creating a barrier to entry. In addition, the laminate interlayer blocks up to 99% UV, a common cause of fading.
Low iron glass has less iron than standard clear glass, giving it a more transparent and color-neutral appearance. Clear glass often has a slight greenish tint, which is eliminated in the low iron alternative. This feature is especially desirable when glass is used in jewelry casework.
