Debbie’s Grandfather and Great-Uncle owned a catering business, in Chicago, IL. A Swedish immigrant was in their employ to help in preparing their catered dinners. He was looking for olives to garnish a dish and when asked if he wanted the olives that were in the can or ones in the glass jar, he replied in his Swedish accent, the “glace yär”.

Cathedral, Opalescent, Glue Chip & Iridescent Glasses. Cathedral glass is one clear color, Opalescent glass is made by adding one or more colors to a milk white base and Glue Chip is a clear single or double rolled stained glass which has a fern or "jack frost" design. Iridescent glass is glass that contains a rainbow-like coloring on its surface, similar to the effect of oil on water.
We also use a custom painted glue chip glass called Van Gogh. Van Gogh Glass is a clear, glue chip glass that is painted on the back with metallic pigment. This creates a gorgeous, individual or multi-color, 3-D effect, accented with a fern-like pattern. The back of the glass is covered with black paint making the glass completely opaque. Van Gogh glass is made in the U.S.A.
The stems/ferrules on the back of the pulls are individually measured and mounted and can be placed at any inch or metric "center to center" requirement. You can also send us your old pull to be used as a template, or after removing the pull from your drawer or cabinet, place a piece of paper over both holes and with a sharp instrument, poke into each of the holes for an exact template and send to us.
We accept payments through PayPal. You can use a credit card through PayPal without having to set up a PayPal account.
If you have any other questions other than what is shown, please feel free to contact us.
