Etched Glass
We’ve supplied homes in Kansas with bespoke etched glass ever since we were first established in 1994. We create all of our glass to order so we can create glass to suit your home perfectly.
What designs do we offer?
In our etched glass main gallery, you’ll find a wide variety of designs, from refined etched house names and numbers to traditional Victorian etched designs. A favorite of our clients in Kansas is our Shadows of Nature range, where we immortalise the beauty of nature within etched glass panels. We also have a range of designs inspired by renowned designers Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Frank Lloyd Wright. These are just a few highlights from our etched glass main gallery, so whether you’re looking for something modern, classical, or a little different, you’re guaranteed to find the perfect glass for your Kansas home.
We can even produce bespoke designs if you have your own artwork or imagery you would like us to use. Here is a guide to explain what imagery is suitable for etching.

Proofing process
On every order, regardless how small, we will send a proof of your custom glass design(s), usually within 5 working days of placing an order.
After we send you your proof, you can either approve it and we’ll start production, or request any necessary changes to the design. This could include adjusting the size of certain elements, or adding/removing certain features such as leaves or butterflies. We will only begin production once you have approved the final design.
Our decorative glass studio offers free delivery on almost all etched glass panels we supply to homes across Kansas and the USA. We also manufacture and supply fused glass to Kansas.

About Etched Glass
One of the oldest forms of decorative glass, etched glass has a history dating back to the 15th century. Over time, the manufacturing process has improved, allowing for more intricate designs, and this has likely contributed to its resurgence in popularity in recent years. Etched glass is now typically produced by using an abrasive or acidic substance to etch a design onto a glass panel.

How do we etch glass?
The technique we use when making etched glass is abrasive-blasting, also known as sandblasting. We have opted for this method for a variety 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
We begin by creating a unique mask to fit your bespoke panel(s) which is then applied to 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 a high-speed pressurized abrasive substance. After 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. Double glazed panels do not require this coating as the etched side of the panel is contained within the double glazed unit.
Perfection
Quality Redefined
What to avoid when buying etched glass
While some companies may advertise “etched glass,” they actually use vinyl stickers with an etched-like appearance instead of truly etching a panel. These stickers can deteriorate and change color when exposed to sunlight, resulting in a yellowish appearance. Be aware that if a company claims to offer “etched glass effect” panels through screen-printing, they can 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
Our Kansas clients frequently choose etched glass house names and numbers for their transom windows, and it’s not difficult to understand why. The finish is excellent and it can quickly enhance the entryway of a property, adding a much desired touch of elegance. Our glass artists produce hundreds of these panels every year for customers globally.
Many homes in the Kansas 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.
When you place your order, we will show you a preview of how the final panel(s) will look with your selected font and border (if applicable) to ensure that you are completely satisfied with your design choices.
