October 20, 2009-Palm Desert, CA: Glass Doors, also called all glass or frameless doors, undoubtedly create a very “high-end” or upscale look to any entry, whether it be for a home or place of business. Sans Soucie Art Glass Studios of Palm Desert, California was commissioned to create a custom, all glass entry for the “The Raiders” football team owner, Mr. Al Davis. Custom designed for his home in the Coachella Valley, each door is a towering 10′ tall x 5′ wide and are etched and carved with a custom design that not only provides but makes a a very personal statement!

The design features the Oakland Raiders football team logo front and center, and is bordered with two different etched and sculpture carved custom glass textures made up of wavy lines and a texture that features “glass chunks and shapes”. The background areas of the entire glass surface is solid frosted or etched, to obscure the glass and create privacy. There are two sets of sidelites, the first set butting up against each glass door, continuing the borders all around. The second set of sidelite windows are on about 18″ away from the doors on either side and feature a solid etched glass image of the infamous Super Bowl Trophy.
