Stratum Image Glass
High-resolution images sealed in toughened glass – the alternative to expensive natural finishes, designed to be backlit.
We specialise in producing large format, high-resolution images of exotic marbles and onyxes, that simulate the natural products when encapsulated in toughened glass. The effect is as luxurious as the real thing, with numerous added benefits. Our image libraries include 11 collections from Michael Banks' range of contemporary photographic images, click here to discover more.
• Stratum Image Glass is significantly less expensive than natural marble or onyx
• We can retouch and colour-correct the image to the desired effect, or flip the image to recreate the effects of book-matched stone.
• Many natural finishes cannot be used at any great size due to delicacy – no issue here.
• No depletion of natural resources.
• Suitable for internal or external applications.
