 Transparency Values Explained

Transparency of glass is measured by the level of Opacity. It is a measure how little light or how much light can pass through a sheet of glass. There are different levels of Transparency starting with Transparent styles and gradually increasing in Opacity to the more obscure Opalescent.

Transparent - Light can easily pass through these 100% transparent glasses since they don’t contain any opaque glass or other light blocking material, such as metallic flakes in Aventurine glasses. Formerly known as Cathedral Products.

Translucent - These mixed products are predominantly transparent glass with some opaque glass mixed in, allowing light to pass through in many or most areas.

Semi-Translucent - Predominantly opaque glass with some translucent glass mixed in, allowing less light to pass through the sheet or pass through in only small areas.

Opalescent - Glasses that are primarily or completely opaque, reflecting most light away but often featuring a luminescent glow when backlit depending on the specific product.
