How we really break our plates

It’s not really how we make our jewelry but it sure is fun to smash things with a hammer sometimes!

When we tell people we make jewelry from broken plates, they often think we do something crazy like actually hitting plates with a hammer, as seen in some of our process videos. You can find these videos here on our TikTok account or here on our Instagram account.

The true way that we cut the glass is typically with diamond infused abrasives and a waterjet machine. Our process ensures that all our pieces will be perfectly reproduced every time for consistent results in our finished products.

Below you will find some examples of what happens when we combine modern CNC technologies with traditional blown glass techniques!
