Hi! Thank you for your question.
Our Frosted Coated bottles involve being treated with Acid Etching.
Acid-etched glass is a decoration process that has been used in the production of Frosted Coated Glassware for years. Also known as “French embossing”, craftsmen applied heat to fluorite and saw it produced hydrofluoric acid.
This acid when applied to glass would erode the top layer and leave a frosted or opaque appearance. Much safer methods have been developed since then, giving greater protection to those that work with the materials and being less harmful to the environment.
