Painted Etched Glass Shower Door
Another great review for a painted etched glass shower door. This shower is in a CEO’s office. Here is the review that our custom posted in Facebook about the painted etched glass shower door. “Pete, I just wanted to personally send a big thank you for doing such an amazing job craving and back painting my office bath shower door. My company is always impressed with your quality work and level of care you put into each one of our custom shower doors that we sell. Finally was able to have one of your creations in my own bath!” Thanks again and looking forward to a bright future with Krystal Glass.

Clients Robert (left) and Maria commissioned artist Peter Edward (right) of Krystal Glass Company to design and create this custom illuminated art glass panel for the foyer of their newly built home in Pompano Beach. The 97″ Starphire glass was created with a free form wave design across the top of the aquarium scene. The wave highlights the multi-colored LED lights of the custom illuminated art glass and the carved and etched glass areas.

The glass design is rich with sea life including the client’s request for hog snapper, lion fish, grouper, lobster, and coral.
