JoyKey Etched Glass Portraits

The perfect gift for any occasion!


Each of our portraits is hand-painted, a work of art you can give to your loved ones.


The ultimate wedding gift:

There is simply no more elegant wedding gift than a couple's engagement portrait etched in glass. We call it the "gasp and tears" effect. That's what will happen when the new bride opens her gift from you. Forty years from now when she and her husband are retired and relaxing in front of the fire on a chilly evening, their younger selves will still be smiling, in love, on the mantel, decades after other pictures have faded.

For the grandparents:

When your brother and sister show up with gifts like sweatshirts and soap-on-a-rope, your parents can show them the etched glass portrait of their grandchildren that you gave them. It's the ultimate gift for someone who has everything they need, and it will be an heirloom for future generations as well.


For the pet lover:

No photograph can compare to the beauty and permanence of an etched glass portrait, and there is no better gift for people who consider their pets as their children. Long after the companionship has ended, the portrait will still bring fond memories and a smile.


The Process:

JoyKey etched glass portraits are not digital reproductions using expensive photo masks and caustic chemicals. Our portraits are hand-painted in negative on the glass itself, then sandblasted in layers. The result is a stunning, artistic reproduction of your photo that will last a lifetime.

Our Guarantee:

If you do not love your portrait when you receive it, please slam it up against the nearest wall! Within 30 days send us a shard of the portrait with an recognizable part of the image, and your money will be refunded immediately. No, we're not kidding. Just break it and mail a small piece back. (Always use eye protection when detroying our masterpieces!)


Our Product:

We offer 8"x10" glass on a black paper background in a simple frame. Customers are encouraged to provide their own frames and backgrounds after they receive their portraits. (We use the plain frames and paper backgrounds to keep your costs low, but you might like something a little nicer.)

How It Works:

Email your photo to [email protected]. We will use photo editing software and email you back a picture of what your portrait will look like. If you love it, print out the order form in the email and send your check or money order for the purchase price, plus $5 for shipping and handling. Money orders will result in the fastest shipment, since we won't start working on your portrait until your check clears. Then you will receive your etched glass portrait by mail in less than two weeks or we will refund the shipping and handling costs.
