The Glass
The glass is not a single uniform material. Not only it can take a multitude of different decorative aspects, but it can also present various technical performances invisible to the naked eye and most often related to its strength and insulating ability. Recall that we are talking first of all about flat glass (except hollow glass bottles and flasks) which may undergo technical changes as well as heat treatment or cold in nature rather than decorative.

The frosted glass
Sandblasting is a method of etching and engraving obtained by projecting a powerful jet of sand (air jet) on an object glass. The grains of sand create small cavities. It provides a frosted or glazed effect, to write and draw patterns on the glass and even carve it.

Enameled Glass
The product is tempered with a face (or both) is coated with one or more layers of colored glazes, Vitreous during Thermal quenching. The process occurs in stages. Very resistant as toughened, glass is suitable for indoor and outdoor ( requiring safety glass). Its decorative character is close to that of painted glass which is exclusively for the interior.

Safety glass "security"
A glass is called "security" when it has features that could reduce the risk of accidents and break-ins by shock, deformation or by fire. These are the PVB laminated glass, toughened glasses and glasses armed. Attention is not a double glazed safety glass unless, one of his glasses is a laminated glass (placed inside).

Mirror
A mirror is an object with a surface smooth enough to form an image by reflection and designed for this purpose. It is often a thin metal layer, which, to be protected, is placed under a plate glass for domestic mirrors (mirrors used in optical instruments include the metal surface above the glass being only a medium quality mechanical stability).
