Bay windows allowed the dining room to be flooded with afternoon light, but they also showed more of the house next door than the residents cared to see. Since their budget wouldn't permit filling the large bay with stained glass, we came up with a wonderful alternative. We created five stained glass panels, one to hang in the center of each window. All five panels have the same line design, based on an anemone flower, with the colors running abstractly in passages across the five panels. That is, the panels share a design yet each panel is unique in color, and together they are a stunning whole. The bubbles and striations of rose, purple, green-blue, and yellow streaky mouth-blown glass make the sunlight play throughout the room. Who could notice the neighbors now?

Customers say that this Maker ships promptly after completing a project.
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
We are a husband-wife team who design and create stained glass windows, artful stained glass objects, and functional fused glass for homes, businesses, and public spaces. For more than thirty-five years we have been creating windows, glass panels, and light fixtures tailored to specific sites. Now we also offer kiln-formed glass. We love working with mouth-blown and handmade glass because of its rich beauty, and our delight in the glass is shown through innovative design and excellent fabrication in lead and copper foil techniques as well as fusing and slumping.
Whether you desire an architectural installation, accessories like a lamp or light vessel, a piece of stained glass art for your personal collection, colorful tableware, or a very special gift, we can create something original. Client needs and interests are central to our design and fabrication process. While it is advantageous to discuss a window project before new construction, we also fabricate to fit existing windows.

For Contemporary Stained Glass Border MirrorMy mirrors are stunning. Working with Mary Ann and Jay was a delight from the beginning of the project until the end. They offered me many options and stayed in touch with me to design a beautiful creation. I highly recommend them.

Excellent! They came to my house to see the room, were right on time, sent me samples of the stained glass and pictures of their design, and delivered and hung the lamp themselves... all for a reasonable price! They were very nice also.
