In the realm of interior design and architectural embellishment, etched glass walls stand as a testament to the seamless blend of artistry and practicality. Over the past 30 years, Clive Sparkes, one of the UK’s leading designers, has spearheaded a movement towards creating bespoke, individually scaled etched glass designs. His work, primarily in the Cambridge production center, has revolutionised the way etched glass is perceived and utilized in modern spaces. The range of products available to create etched glass walls are unique and focus on sliding and hinged technology.
Award winning, the back catalogue has now been put together to offer one of the largest ranges of etched glass in the UK today. Each design can be scaled to your sizes, with a design proof send to you for approval before manufacture.

The foremost advantage of etched glass walls, particularly those designed by Clive Sparkes, lies in their aesthetic appeal. Each piece is a work of art, intricately designed and meticulously crafted to suit the specific dimensions and stylistic preferences of a space. The etching process allows for a range of designs, from minimalistic patterns to elaborate scenes, offering a level of customization unparalleled in other materials. In residential settings, these designs add a touch of sophistication, while in commercial spaces, they can embody brand identity or create a desired ambiance.
Sliding etched glass walls are the epitome of space optimization and versatility. They serve as elegant room dividers, allowing for the creation of distinct areas without the permanence of solid walls. In smaller spaces, these sliding walls can open up rooms, creating a sense of expansiveness and fluidity. The translucency of etched glass ensures that light is not obstructed, maintaining an airy and open feel even when the walls are closed.
Hinged etched glass walls offer a blend of functionality and privacy. They are ideal for settings where flexible access is required, such as meeting rooms or private offices. The etched designs provide a level of privacy, obscuring direct views while still allowing for the passage of light. This balance between seclusion and openness makes hinged etched glass walls a practical choice for many commercial and residential applications.
Contrary to common perception, etched glass walls designed by experts like Clive Sparkes are highly durable and easy to maintain. The etching process does not weaken the glass; instead, it can sometimes reinforce its integrity. Maintenance is straightforward, often requiring nothing more than regular cleaning with the recommended cleaning solutions. Each etched glass wall is coated with Ritec Clearshield Easy Clean coating with a 10 year warranty.
In today’s world, where environmental concerns are paramount, etched glass walls offer an eco-friendly alternative to traditional building materials. Glass is recyclable, and its use in walls can contribute to energy efficiency. The natural light that passes through reduces the reliance on artificial lighting, while the insulating properties of double-glazed etched glass can help in temperature regulation.
Very good customer service. We needed to replace glass door panels we got from them over ten years ago and they were able to find the order make and deliver the new panels quickly so the door was fixed before Christmas! Excellent company!
