About Etched Glass
A decorative technique dating back to the 15th century, etched glass has evolved over the years to allow for more design variety and intricacy. This has led to an increase in popularity in recent years. The process of creating etched glass involves using an abrasive or acidic substance to etch a design into a panel of glass.

This has led to an increase in popularity in recent years. The process of creating etched glass involves using an abrasive or acidic substance to etch a design into a panel of glass.
How do we etch glass?
When creating etched glass, we use the abrasive-blasting technique, commonly known as sandblasting. This technique is used for a number of reasons:
- It ensures our etched glass finish is consistent and of the highest quality.
- It enables us to offer a wide variety of highly detailed designs and even completely bespoke designs to our clients.
- It allows more light to transmit through to the home than alternatives like acid etched glass.
- It avoids the health and safety issues associated with using hazardous acid to etch glass.
Our Process
The first step is to create a unique mask which is then positioned on the surface of the glass that will be etched. This mask protects the areas of the glass that we want to keep clear. The glass is then placed in a sandblasting chamber and bombarded with high-speed pressurized abrasive substance. Once the panel’s surface has been fully etched, we remove the temporary mask, revealing the etched design. For single glazed glass, a protective coating is applied to the etched side of the panel to prevent fingerprints permanently marking the glass. Double glazed panels do not require this coating as the etched side of the panel is protected within the double glazed unit.

What to avoid when buying etched glass
Many companies advertise “etched glass,” but they actually use vinyl stickers with an etched-like appearance, not true etching. These stickers can deteriorate and change color when exposed to sunlight, resulting in a yellowish appearance. Additionally, if a company offers “etched glass effect” panels through screen-printing, be aware that they may also experience discoloration over time.
We produce etched glass panels the right way, sandblasting them to achieve a high-quality, permanent etched finish. To prevent disappointment, it is essential to ensure that you are investing in a quality sandblasted, etched glass product. Information on the problems that can occur with counterfeit etched glass can be found here.
House Names and Numbers
Etched glass house names and numbers are a popular choice among our Florida clients for transom windows, and it’s not hard to see why. The finish is excellent and it can instantly enhance the entryway of a property, adding a highly desired touch of elegance. Our glass artists produce hundreds of these panels every year for customers worldwide.
Many homes in the Florida area feature a glass panel above their doors, known as a transom window, which can be the perfect location to showcase an etched house name or number. Our collection of house names and numbers can be browsed to find the ideal design to complement your home. Additionally, matching door or side panels can also be created upon request.
Again, when you place your order, we will send you a proof of how the finished panel(s) will look with your chosen font and border (if applicable) to make sure you’re 100% happy with your design choices.
