Stained Glass graphic

The term stained glass is commonly used to describe glass panels of various colored and textured glass. The correct term is art glass since glass is manufactured in a wide variety of colors and textures and not actually stained.

Large sheets of glass are cut and then assembled using one of or a combination of methods. The methods are lead, brass or zinc came or copper foil. The copper foil method is commonly used for small intricate pieces, most often seen in Tiffany style lamps and panels.

The fabrication process is labor intensive and completely done by hand.
