Egizia History
Founded in Poggibonsi, Tuscany, Italy, as a g
lass decorating company Egizia has grown from its beginnings producing decorated wine bottles for the neighboring Chianti region of Italy to an innovator in the area of glass.  Utilizing a proprietary process each piece is hand screen printed with their signature work involving the application of silver which is fused onto the glass.  For pieces with color, each color represents a separate pass with a screen.  Relief detail is also applied with powdered crystal that is then fused onto the surface of the glass.  All printing is heated to over 500 degrees Celsius to form a permanent bond.
