  Please Rate Vote 5   ![Etched Glass Backsplash with Sea Turtle and Kelp Design](https://artglassandmetal.com/images/latest-works/backsplash-ny-760px.png) ### An Etched Glass Backsplash with a Tranquil Aquatic Scene

I was commissioned to design and create this etched and deep carved glass backsplash for installation in a residence in the coastal Orange County city of Laguna Niguel. The glass backsplash is 10 feet long by 3 feet high and is 1/2” thick tempered glass for code and safety.

The beautiful underwater etched fish, turtle and reef design is edge lit from the bottom with LED lighting to illuminate it for a gorgeous visual effect.

Custom designs are our specialty, and our goal is to create creative environments to both commercial and residential projects throughout the United States. Recent jobs include projects on Maui and Oahu in the Hawaiian Islands, along with many coastal southern California cities and towns including Del Mar, La Jolla, Newport Beach, and Laguna Beach to name but a few.

If you are thinking of having a custom etched glass backsplash created for your home or business, please [contact me](https://artglassandmetal.com/contact "Contact Jay Hoyt Curtis about designing and creating an etched glass backsplash") and let's talk.
