Custom Decorative Glass
Glass is the material that changes a display twice: once by what light does to it, and once by the fact that customers can see themselves in it. We design and make fused, sandblasted, etched, blown and coated glass for shopfitting, feature walls, partitions and installation work.

Decorative glass does two jobs in a retail interior. It transmits and shapes light, which is what makes a fused or laminated panel feel warm and deep rather than flat; and it reflects the customer back into the room, which is what makes a shop feel larger and gives a brand a surface to be seen against. We choose the technique based on which of those you are actually after.
For graphic work — a logo, a pattern, a brand mark — sandblasting, etching or acid engraving gives a flat, durable result that repeats accurately across many panels. For sculptural or atmospheric work, fused and blown glass gives depth and translucency. Where the graphic needs to change seasonally, back-painted or printed glass can be swapped without touching the structure.
Safety and certification
Glass used in displays, partitions or overhead installations is treated as a safety-glass application and laminated or tempered accordingly, with edges polished and sealed. We supply the certification documentation your insurer, landlord or building manager will ask for as part of the package, not as an afterthought.

Custom Decorative Glass FAQ
Which decorative glass technique should I choose?
Fused and laminated glass gives depth, translucency and a soft edge that suits feature walls and partitions. Sandblasting, etching or acid engraving gives a flat, repeatable graphic or logo that is durable and cheap to repeat across panels. Blown glass suits one-off sculptural statements. Back-painted or printed glass suits brand graphics that need to change.
Can you work from a drawing or a photograph?
Yes. Send a drawing, a photograph, a logo file or an existing sample. For repeated panels we supply a cut template so each piece can be checked against the original on site, and for one-offs we produce a sample panel for approval before the full piece is made.
Is decorative glass safe for a public retail environment?
Decorative glass used in displays, partitions or overhead installations is treated as a safety-glass application and laminated or tempered accordingly, with edges polished and sealed. We supply the certification documentation your insurer, landlord or building manager will ask for as part of the package.
Can you make single one-off pieces?
Yes. Beyond contract runs we take on one-off fused or sandblasted panels to complete a private or hospitality interior, a reception desk, a bespoke shopfront detail or the final piece of an installation. The minimum order is one piece.
