Hand Painting
Artisans hand-paint patterns on glass with delicate brushstrokes, each stroke infused with an understanding of color and light. After high-temperature firing, the pigments fuse permanently with the glass surface, creating vibrant, translucent colors that never fade. This technique is ideal for decorative vessels, art pieces, and custom gifts.
- Fine brushwork, each piece is unique
- Pigments fuse with glass at high temperature, never fading
- Suitable for cups, bottles, plates, jars and more
Spraying
Using professional spray guns, translucent colored enamels are evenly applied to glass surfaces, creating smooth gradients, misty effects, and layered compositions. Spraying is especially well-suited for large-area color transitions and soft shadow effects, making it an indispensable technique in modern glass decoration.
- Natural gradient effects
- Rich color layers, can be overlapped
- Ideal for large-scale decoration
Gold Foiling
Pure gold leaf, silver foil, or alloy foil is applied to the glass surface and fixed at high temperature, bonding the metal firmly to the glass. The gilded areas display a delicate metallic luster that shifts beautifully with light and viewing angle. Gold foiling is often used for rims, outlines, and accent details.
- Real gold/silver foil, noble texture
- High-temperature fixed, durable
- Metallic luster flows under light
Electroplating
Through an electrochemical process, a thin metal layer is deposited on the glass surface, achieving mirror, matte, or colored finishes. Electroplating gives glass a completely new visual texture and functionality, making it one of the most expressive techniques in the modern glass artist's repertoire.
- Mirror/matte/colored finishes available
- Uniform metal layer, strong adhesion
- Decorative and protective functions
Engraving
Using diamond-tipped engraving tools or high-pressure sandblasting, patterns and textures are precisely carved into the glass surface. Variations in engraving depth and angle create different light transmission effects, adding rich dimensionality to glassware and allowing for intricate designs ranging from fine lines to bold relief textures.
- Relief and sandblasting available
- Engraving depth controllable, varied effects
- Suitable for text, patterns, textures
