What is silkscreening and why must it be done in one color?
Silkscreening is a process that involves transferring a solid image to a permiable substrate (called a screen, or silk screen) and using this to apply ink onto a surface. Glassware is done as silkscreen to produce a crisp and clear image that will last a long time without the high cost of dye sublimation or similar processes. To keep the costs down, we print all of our silkscreened items as single color images. Halftones, dithering and photographs will not product properly using a silkscreen. Bold designs work best, but our fine mesh screens will allow intricate detail as long as line art is produced.
