What do you mean by stamp?
Stamps are tools for imprinting on glass. They are machined out of specialized metal that we use to stamp the glass while it is molten hot (2000º Farenheight).
What is a custom stamp?
A custom stamp starts with your design. Whether it’s hand-drawn or digitallly designed, we can usually turn it into a glass stamp. Each glass is forever personalized with your design and the stamp is yours to keep. Stamping gives you a truly one-of-a-kind glass with a design that you can see and feel.
How do I order?
To get started, send an email to shop@glassblowerben.com and let us know you’re interested in a stamp. Our team will take care of it from there.
There is no need to order glasses now. You can take advantage of the May special and order glasses at any time.
Your future self will thank you for being so savvy.
Gift the perfect glass!
Did you know?
We use a specialized torch to heat the base of the glass in order to stamp it. This torch looks like a light saber and reaches temperatures of over 5000º Farenheight. The torch was custom made for Ben by Glass Torch Technologies in Pennsylvania.
