Shapes and Colors
SOLID GLASS LINERS
Vihara glass is created through a handcrafted process that embraces the individuality of each tile. A wide range of variation in color, shade and surface texture are to be expected. Surface folds, shallow cracks and minor edge irregularities (including occasional chipped sides/edges) are also natural characteristics of Vihara. Within a given color, the tones will vary by size/shape, so please reference samples of the actual size desired.
Samples provided are representative, but may not indicate all variations of these characteristics. Once properly installed, the beauty of this handcrafted glass is enhanced by such variation.
