In 1976, Steven Pellegrino started his profession of glass etching in Long Island, NY working with interior designers in various night clubs,restaurants and high-end homes.
During this time, the art of etching into glass was becoming highly recognized and largely demanded. it was then, that STEVEN decided to bring his work into the automotive industry.
Through the transition, steven met a professional pin-striper, known as, 'bucky the brush' Ahrens, or Robert Ahrens, of Coachman Pin striping, which was owned by his brother, Tommy Ahrens.
After combining ideas, steven and bucky entered their way into car shows, where they started to create a popular market in both private and commercial jobs (car dealerships).
After deciding that the car industry was the right route to move towards, Bucky and Steven made their way to the car capital of the country, Houston, in 1984. And from then, and through the passing of steven's dear friend, Bucky, the business continues strong to this day.
For over 35 years, Steven has been working in automobile dealerships, along with other private, in-home jobs all over the Houston-area and other neighboring cities in Texas, etching over 3,800 vehicles a year.
He is a proud business owner, producing each custom piece personally, with the expectation of quality artistry to every client.
