Abstract:
Apple’s first flagship store
in New York’s SOHO district brings to
mind an Apple notebook: a spare, elegant
metal housing for its ground-breaking
technology. It was one of several Apple
storefronts covered in the GB-60â„¢ stainless
steel surface. “GB†stands for glass
bead and “60†is the bead size used to
finish the metal panels. The process was
developed by Zahner, a manufacturer
of high quality metal and glass products
used in art and architecture.
If glass bead adds polish to the world’s
most expensive apples, what else should
we know about it?
