Four unique styles!
Premium Reflective - Fire Beads - Zircon - 2.0

Classic and Premium Reflective

These are by far the most popular styles&#;the original fireglass that has stood the test of time.

They have an irregular broken-chunks aesthetic. If you imagine a large sheet of glass, broken into a thousand small pieces, the only regular dimension would be the thickness of the original plate of glass and it is this which defines its size, ¼ &#; or ½&#;. The ½&#; ends up chunkier as the original sheet was twice as thick.

Both Classic and Premium Reflective Glass come in a wide range of colors. The difference is that the Reflective range has one mirrored surface which amplifies the reflections for added sparkle.

Pre-Mixed

This is just what it sounds like, a pre-mixed selection of colors from the ½&#; reflective glass range, forming six unique color combinations.

Fire Beads

Smooth, round, and regular-shaped tempered glass beads approximately 1&#; in diameter with a thickness of &#;&#; to &#;&#;.  The luster variety has been infused with silica for an extra soft warm glow.

Zircon

Irregular yet smooth, these look like tiny colored glass rocks. The luster coating, applied after the glass has been formed, creates the mesmerizing illusion of the glass melting when the fire feature is lit .

Fire Glass 2.0

The most recent addition to the American FireGlass collection. The individual pieces are cuboid with smooth, rounded edges and feature five luster-coated sides. The luster finish produces a glazed effect when the fire pit is lit giving the impression that the glass surface is melting in the flames.
