Sandblast-etched glass panels and vessels with frosted line work.
Etched glass is clear glass with the design sandblasted into the surface, leaving a frosted white mark that is part of the glass rather than printed on it. It cannot fade, peel, or wash off, which is why it is the finish used for pieces meant to last a lifetime. Love & Love YAH designs each one in-house, makes it to order, and donates 10% of every purchase to a Christian ministry, mission, charity or non-profit.
Printed glass sits on the surface and will eventually scratch or dishwasher off. Sandblasted etching removes glass, so the mark is permanent even under abrasion.
Names, dates, and full passages can be etched into most pieces, which is why these are the standard choice for retirements, ordinations, and dedications. Wash with normal dish soap. The etched area may hold water spots, which wipe away dry. 10% of every purchase is donated to a Christian ministry, mission, charity or non-profit.
