Traditionally hand painted kiln fired glass: Glass is painted using traditional glass pigments which have been used for centuries in traditional stained glass in churches and to add detail in domestic leadlights. A trace outline is first painted then fired, a matt shading is then applied and the highlights removed to add depth to the painted piece. Silver staining and coloured glass enamels may also be added to create more visual interest in depths of golds, pinks blues or greens. We also offer acid etching and sandblasting which used with mouth blown flashed glass combined with painting offers endless possibilities to enhance your design.
