Fused glass work is my primary focus, but I also work in leaded stained glass, found object sculpture, large abstract watercolors, and acrylic painting. I use glass to make custom lighting fixtures and chandeliers. Most of my material is scrap recycled from local leaded glass businesses. Musical themes predominate, but I am open to other imagery. I am able to incorporate text and personal photographs into my custom work.
In addition to glass, I make custom or reproduction lead castings for use with leaded glass panels.

For Eden's ChandelierOur chandelier exceeded our expectations! It was absolutely beautiful and definitely unque. It is displayed in our redeveloped sanctuary and everyone is so amazed as well as pleased.
David was truly a God sent. He paid attention to detail and handcrafted every inch of it.. He kept us informed of every step in the progress. His delivery timing was delayed due to us and not him. It was well worth the wait. Thank you David for providing the focal point in our sanctuary at Eden International Ministries in Lumberton, NC.

For Hotel emblem ProjectImpeccable craftsmanship and exactly what I had asked/hoped for. Communication was continuous and David provided pictures of the project in the making. He asked me my opinion on key aspects of the project and the end results was stunning. If I ever have another project like this I would contact David without hesitation. Great work and thank you so much David.

For Savanna's ChandelierWorking with David was an absolute pleasure. He took the time early on to really understand my vision, and made working with him so easy. His constant communication at every step of the way kept us completely involved and allowed us to take control of the project from a distance. He definitely went above and beyond personally driving our piece to Florida for delivery (from Texas!) and has left us with nothing but great things to say about him.
I'm already trying to dream up new projects just so we can work with him again and have more than one David Zvanut original in our home!

For Custom Stained Glass SignsI would definitely work with David again. I have to admit that usually I don't order something site unseen or out of state without seeing similar product or visiting site locally so this was a reach of faith. David took my vision and created a great stainglass restaurant name piece for me. Once approved, he kept me in constant updates on the status of production and showing images as the product progressed all the way to finish. It was easy to pay and go through Custom to work with him and pay. He probably packed the sign which is very delicate better than I've ever seen anything packed. I can't wait to get my new location open in Chicago and put up this piece of Art.
