How we cut out any shape of glass

Cutting out a cat cuff from a piece of a hand blown glass plate using our diamond band saw

When we create our line of imagery glass wearables at Broken Plates, we do not cut out the glass with our typical waterjet method. We actually have to hand cut each and every pendant or cuff using our trusty diamond band saw. With a combination of diamond-infused abrasives and water, we are able to maneuver the piece of glass in any direction, allowing us to cut out any shape like butter!

While we may not have any cat cuffs in stock at the moment, stay tuned for our Black Friday release of new Flat Files items. With every innovation and changing season, our collection of samples, past wearables, experimentations, and seconds grows and is stored within our Flat Files. In an effort to make room for the new, we’re offering these beautiful one of a kind glass wearables at incredibly discounted prices.
