Not quite sure what the question is? But this is both Star Fired and Tempered. Star fired refers to a higher quality, higher clarity of the final product. In short, it goes blue on the edges vs Green not only on the edges but the thicker the glass goes, the greener the tint is overall. Star Fired appears clear. Always pay the extra, it is worth it! They are always Tempered, that is a code requirement. Good Luck!
