Your questions about designing with low-iron acid-etched glass, answered.

So, what’s so special about designing with low-iron glass? To start, low-iron glass like Vitro’s Starphire Ultra-Clear® glass doesn't have the greenish tint inherent to regular “clear” glass, so it can deliver a cleaner, purer light. The clarity of the glass then becomes even more apparent when you add a full surface acid-etched finish, making it the perfect blank canvas for designers and architects.
