patterned glass

Privacy window material

Patterned glass is glass with a textured or decorative surface, typically created by rolling molten glass over an engraved surface.

The patterns—often geometric, floral, or abstract—obscure visibility while allowing light through, making it common in bathroom windows, shower doors, and interior partitions where privacy matters: The patterned glass in the front door let in light without revealing who was inside.
