Located in the beautiful Finger Lakes region in Ithaca, NY, my partner, Virginia, and I have been creating stained glass windows and panels for over 35 years. My artistic background and experiences are many and varied, including running a stained and fused glass business, teaching art in public schools, prisons, and Adult Ed. classes, and working the crafts fair circuit in the Northeast. My pieces are displayed worldwide in homes and businesses.
Each piece is carefully assembled using the copper foil method, and skillfully soldered with internal, rigid structural supports throughout if needed. Only the best glass is used. You will not find mass produced glass in any of my windows. If painting is present, I use the centuries old method of hand painting, and firing it in a kiln to enamel it into the glass.
All windows are available in either a hand crafted hardwood frame, finished or unfinished, or framed in an unfinished zinc frame suitable for installation. Sizes can be customized.
All work will be expertly packed and shipped fully insured. Or pick up is available.
My business was created with the vision that "small is better". I am able to offer quick and personal service to you, working closely to give you a beautiful art object that you will treasure for years to come. Any pieces shown can be customized to fit your vision.
