CBS Dichroic Glass & Bevels

We stock CBS dichroic bevels and sheet glass. Dichroic glass got its start in aerospace research, where vacuum-deposited thin-film coatings were developed for satellite mirrors and optical filters. In the early 1970s, Jerry Sandberg was working at a vacuum-coating lab in Newport Beach when he noticed a local artist salvaging scrap dichroic-coated mirror pieces from the trash. That encounter led him to develop the first dichroic colors made specifically for glass artists, and in 1996 he and his wife Nona founded Coatings by Sandberg (CBS) in Orange, CA. The coating itself is built from layers of vaporized quartz and metal oxides, deposited in a vacuum chamber to form a crystal structure just millionths of an inch thick. The signature effect is two colors in one piece of glass — a transmitted color you see light pass through, and a different reflected color that bounces off the surface — and both shift depending on the angle you view them from.
