Restoration & preservation

Old glass should still look old—whole again, not replaced.

We match original glass, color, painted detail, lead, and construction technique so the repaired window keeps its own character. Our work includes evaluation, careful removal, vandalism and hail repair, repainting, resizing, and reinstallation.

One studio, two kinds of trust

For a landmark. For the house you live in.

A stained glass project can carry a congregation’s memory or change the light in a single room. We approach both with the same attention: listen first, understand the setting, then make or restore every piece by hand.

“The only place in the US for top quality stained glass.” — Kirk Schroeder, Google review

Custom residential glass

Privacy, shaped by light.

Entryways, sidelights, kitchens, baths, transoms, room dividers, wine cellars, cabinets, and difficult openings—designed one at a time for the architecture of your home.

Custom windows carry a 25-year guarantee.
