Abstract
A method of providing an encodable layer on a glass object and on the resultant product. Said layer is formed by providing a paste containing glass frit, pigment and a binder, on the hot glass. As a result, the glass frit melts, causing the pigment to adhere to the glass object. The binder, which is used to render the paste spreadable, disappears from the mixture.
