BOROSILICATE GLASS

Borosilicate objects are free blown on a lathe in editions of 20 by a lamp worker, using the same techniques as a scientific laboratory glassware maker, who would normally blow chemistry apparatus.

Borosilicate glass is more resistant to thermal shock than other glass. Borosilicate is referred to as 'hard glass' and has a higher melting point (approximately 1650 degrees Celsius) than 'soft glass'.

MAKING

Engraving

Glass may be personalised here in London by hand engraving. Initials, names, monogram, logo or a memorable date may be added to create a personal gift.

We suggest 5mm high Bodoni font (designed by Giambattista Bodoni in the late eighteenth century), which relates to the pricing options shown. Anything else is also possible . . .  please be in touch with your requirement.

When selecting text, we suggest that less is more. We are happy to advise on placement. Before engraving, we will show you the proposed lettering positions drawn onto the glass for your approval.

Once you have selected your text, please send your instructions via our contact form.

For options not shown in the pricing, please be in touch for a quote.
Please allow 3 weeks for delivery, from having your idea finalised. Returns or exchanges are not possible for engraved items.

Delivery

Free world delivery for orders of £45 and over. Your order will be sent from our studio in London. For international orders outside the UK, import duties or taxes may apply.

Gift Delivery Outside the UK

If you are sending a gift to a recipient outside the UK and would like to pay the duty charges ahead, please let us know and we shall arrange a quote. For these orders, we use a DDP service (Delivery Duty Paid), so the price already includes the import duty and the receiver will not be charged landing taxes when your purchase reaches customs.

London

For orders to be delivered within London, same-day or next-day delivery may be possible at no extra cost - if you require this, please be in touch for confirmation.
