Is etching glass expensive?

While etched glass can be very beautiful, the beauty comes with a price. Costing as much as $125 per square foot, etched glass may be impractical for all but a very few installations.

How can you tell if glass is etched?

You can perform a simple test to see if your dishes are etched or if they are simply coated with mineral & soap build up. Put some lemon juice on a small area of the effected glassware & allow it soak for 5-10 minutes then wash it off. Allow the glass to dry.
