Types of decorative glass
| Type | What it looks like | Where it is used |
|---|---|---|
| Patterned | A textured surface that blurs the view and lets light through | Bathroom windows, front doors, partitions |
| Reeded (fluted) | Parallel ribs that break up the view into vertical lines | Kitchen cabinets, shower screens, room dividers |
| Painted back | Solid colour seen through clear glass, with a glossy finish | Kitchen splashbacks, wall cladding, furniture |
| Tinted | Green, smoked, bronze or blue through the body of the glass | Facades, balustrades, interior screens |
Kitchen splashbacks
A painted back glass splashback is easy to wipe clean and has no grout lines. Behind a hob it should be toughened glass, which takes heat far better than ordinary glass. Sockets and switches need cut-outs, and those are made before toughening, so send exact positions with your sizes.
How to ask for a price

Questions we are asked
Is reeded glass private?
Reeded glass blurs shapes and gives good privacy close up while letting light through. It is not fully opaque.
Can decorative glass be toughened?
Yes. Patterned, reeded, painted and tinted glass can be toughened or laminated for safety, and built into insulated units.
