Art glass in a broad sense covers all glass products that use glass material as a carrier to reflect the design concept and express artistic effects, including works of art, handicrafts and decorations, etc., while art glass in a narrow sense only refers to works of art.

Advantages of art glass.

1.Due to the properties of the glass itself, the glass itself has the characteristics of transparency, light transmission, brightness, and stable chemical properties, and has a wide range of uses. Art glass is a glass product that is made of ordinary glass or special glass for secondary deep processing to become a glass product with better decorative effect.

2.In home decoration, it can be used as a TV background wall, entrance, partition, screen, end view and other uses, with home decoration beautification, and even play an important role in finishing touch. If the style of art glass matches the environment, the workmanship of the art glass itself is passable, and the ornamentation is very good.

3.In tooling, the background wall, entrance, and large-area partition of large entertainment venues are all very effective. The grade and style are fully displayed.

Art glass cons:

Since glass products are fragile products, they are easy to break during transportation if you are not careful. After installation, there is basically no problem. Also, it needs to be matched with the environment. This requires everyone to be prepared in both areas.

Art glass is now widely used in decoration design, and art glass can be seen in many places. From the ceiling of the church, the background wall of the home decoration, the partition of the public place, etc., it is a stage for art glass to show its charm.

It can be used as an entrance, TV background wall, sofa background wall, bathroom partition, wall cabinet door, etc.

Art glass can be divided into three categories:Comprehensive, cold working, hot working.

1. Comprehensive category:It refers to the art glass works and products made by the product using more than one cold processing method, or more than one hot processing method, or using both cold and hot processing methods.

2. Cold processing:

Inlaid glass (traditional inlay, English inlay, metal welded inlay).

Chemical etching (pattern masking, silkscreen pattern masking, pattern concave masking).

Tool engraving (all kinds of grinding wheels, sand bar carving, crystal carving knives, computer car flowers).

Sandblasting engraving (handmade etch mask, machine etch mask, photolithography mask, paint texture mask).

Laser engraving (computer-controlled laser engraving).

Cutting moulding (knife cutting, water cutting).

Pasting modeling (flat paste, space paste, pasting of colored glass and adhesive film, pasting of colored bead sand conditions, multi-layer gluing, gold pasting).

Vertical line (vertical line color crystal, vertical line paint embossing).

Painted (airbrush painting, brush painting, silk screen color map, polycrystal).

Coating Plating mirrors (including mirror paintings).

Ice Flower (Physical Ice Flower, Chemical Ice Flower).

Interlayer (EN film interlayer: flower cloth, flower paper, color adhesive film, wire mesh, etc.).

3. Thermal processing:

Blown: Blowing with a tube dipped in glass beads: artificial steel mold Mechanism steel mold blowing, artificial free shaping: blowing, rolling, falling and sticking.

Casting: Hydraulic injection or flow of glass into the mold to form: steel molded die-cast glass bricks, hand-cast colored glass tiles, plane casting art glass, lost wax precision casting, glaze workshop.

Pressing: Draw out the molten glass and emboss or press the glass plate with colored texture and shading with a roll: machine-embossed glass, hand-embossed art glass, machine-made glass mosaic.

Sintering: Sintering glass powder and the like at high temperature in the mold: Molded handicrafts such as foam glass or glass-ceramic.

Fusing: Melting glass into liquid glass and condensing under its surface tension: molten glass beads, glass handicrafts and handicrafts.

Enamel: The use of high-temperature glaze to color or paint on the surface of glass: glaze glass, glaze painting.

Stacking: Burning and sticking laminated glass into one: stacking, stacking, and clamping.

Investment molding: Melting flat glass and concave molding: most of the products currently called "hot melt glass" in China.

Slumping: Burning the glass to sagging freely: curved surface hot bending, hot bending to produce "wash basins", "aquariums", etc.
