Pastor Sergio from Light Of The World Church in Miami gives Krystal Glass Company a very positive video testimonial about the carved glass logo created by Peter Edward. “Outstanding beautiful work, very detailed, and just what we were looking for,” Pastor Sergio said. Krystal Glass Company recently created the carved glass logo with the intention of the church illuminating it with LED lights once they install it. Peter Edward started the project of the carved glass logo with low-iron, very high quality glass as he does with other art glass projects that will be illuminated with LED lights. For 35 years, Krystal Glass Company has specialized in several types of glass that make unique etched glass signs for businesses, schools and organizations. Etched and carved glass, LED illuminated glass and painted glass are just a few of the possibilities. Peter Edward has etched and carved all types of art including logos and custom fine art designs on glass and mirror. The logo above was supplied by Pastor Sergio and recreated on glass. Peter Edward used a combination of glass etching and deeper carved areas to make the logo look striking when illuminated. The piece will be installed with LED lights in the church’s pulpit.

They spent time viewing the online photographs and previous art glass for yachts and boats on our website www.KrystalGlassCompany.com and were impressed with the variety of completed art glass projects, different sizes and lighting options. They came in and had a consultation with Glass Artist Peter Edward about the art glass they wanted to commission for their main salon area to serve as a room divider. “The choices were amazing. Much more than the others had,” Dana said. “The website shows talent. Pete is very interactive to talk to.
