GLASS CRAFT IDEAS

Using our unique machinery, Glass Craft can engrave designs onto all types of glass deeper than is normally possible. This 'deep cut' etching allows the engraved design to be painted using traditional artists' techniques and modern airbrushing and spraying methods to achieve full colour designs and logos which can include precious metals such as Gold Leaf and Silver Leaf.

Some examples of these methods are shown below.

The example (below left) consists of four panes of glass, each of which were frosted on one side with the palm tree and Moroccan designs engraved on the other surface which points into the room. These designs were then finished in full colour before being sealed into the double-glazed units.

Also below is a portrait of the Motorcycle Racing Legend Joey Dunlop which was commissioned by a long term fan. The background is plain frosting with the bike and rider finished in full colour. The picture is taken from two photographs, one of the background which is of the hill down from Kate's Cottage on the famous Isle of Man T.T. circuit. The picture of the motorcycle was taken from another photograph which the fan had taken personally at a completely different viewing position on the mountain course. These were then put together and engraved onto the glass.

 

 

METAL LETTERS

The latest type of sign writing which Glass Craft have developed comes in the form of Raised Metal Letters.

These letters are now available, exclusively from Glass Craft, in a variety of different materials, for example Brushed Steel (as above), Brass and copper, all of which are available in many different finishes.

Glass Craft then attach these letters to any exterior or interior wall by the above mentioned new variable length bracket system that was designed 'in house'.

Depending on the size of your letters and the height that they are off the ground, we can tailor each bracket so that it sits an exact distance from the surface of the wall, no matter if the wall is flat or rough finished. These letters can be made exactly to any size or specification required and can be fitted at your premises in a relatively short space of time by our team of experts.
