What is Fremont Antique Glass?
This specialty sheet glass has been blown in the Fremont neighborhood of Seattle, WA since 1980. Producing only about 14 sheets per day (and taking two days to create a sheet), this glass is truly something special to add to your collection.
Fremont glass is perfectly imperfect. Because Fremont glass is mouth blown, first into a cylinder, then scored open and flattened, no two pieces will be alike. Bubbles, small creases, marks from the flattening process and other human touches may be visible. Pieces may be irregularly shaped, but their vibrant fire polished surface and infinite variations in color and texture make them a breathtaking choice for your next glass art project.
Can Fremont Glass be Fused?
From the supplier:
“Current Fremont glass is generally formulated with Spruce Pine batch to work with Gaffer and Reichenbach colors. It may fuse close to 96, but we always recommend running your own tests because we may vary our glass recipe slightly pending on color. Spruce pine tends to devitrify quickly. We recommend placing glass with surface frit so the textured side is up. Older Fremont glass has various base glass and may not be compatible with current glass production. Note - Glass with gold aventurine is not fusing compatible with other Fremont glass.”
Glass Terms
Pricing codes are determined by the materials and process used to make the glass. Other letters and terms describe the glass.
CR glass is dipped into water in the blowing process to create a crackle pattern and then reheated to seal the cracks.
CUR is curious glass that may have had a proprietary method or color application applied.
F glass is clear glass with a layer of color on one side. This can be etched or engraved to reveal clear.
G glass is usually transparent glass with some amount of color frit applied.
P glass contains some amount of pink, purple or red which costs a significant amount more than other colors because of the metals used as colorant.
Reamy glass has an extra layer of slightly different formula glass applied on the surface to add streaming texture and more refractive qualities.
S glass contains silver which appears milky grey/yellow in ambient light and brilliant gold yellow in direct sun.
SH glass means the color transitions from dark to light from bottom to top of the sheet.
SP glass has some sort of special treatment such as the twisting of multiple colors to create swirls.
Seeds in glass are bubbles, in scattered or uniform pattern
SF is a treatment to create a surface texture on one side of the glass. This adds to the refractive quality.
Striations are created by rubbing the hot cylinder in a trough spiked with graphite to create fine lines across the surface of the glass adding character and refraction interest - an "antique" look.
V glass means there are variegated color bands across the sheet in light and dark.

All of our glass is packaged with care so that you can enjoy it at its best. All glass sales are final but should your order arrive damaged, please reach out to us within 48 hours of receiving your order with a photo of your concern and we will work with you on a solution.
