Designer & Artist
Marybeth Ting is a Toronto-based verre églomisé artist recognized for creating bespoke gilded glass artworks using genuine gold, silver, and mother-of-pearl.Her practice is rooted in the centuries-old craft of reverse glass gilding—where precious metal leaf is applied to the back of glass to achieve a luminous, mirror-like surface. Each piece is meticulously hand-gilded and layered to capture light in motion, resulting in works that embody both permanence and quiet luxury. Through years of experimentation and mastery, Marybeth has developed proprietary verre églomisé techniques that merge historical precision with modern refinement. Her innovations include textural gilding techniques, mother-of-pearl inlays, and layered translucencies that produce unique tonal depth and reflective brilliance.
From concept to completion, Marybeth’s studio offers a collaborative and fully bespoke approach to verre églomisé. Each commission is designed and hand-crafted in Toronto for luxury interiors and private collections, with commissions shipped worldwide. Her works are created to harmonize with architectural space—transforming interiors through the interplay of glass, light, and precious metal.
Beyond her studio, Marybeth shares her expertise as an instructor with The Society of Gilders and as a member of the American Society of Interior Designers and the Association of Registered Interior Designers of Ontario.
“My work is a tribute to past artisans whose skill and craftsmanship can’t be matched by modern technology. By reimagining their methods, I aim to create a legacy that blends history with innovation.”
