Intro to Lead Came Panels

Cost: $135 per person + cost of tools/materials

​

A lead came class for beginners - at an intermediate level in glass (must have glass cutting/fitting experience). Students will complete one stained glass lead came panel approximately 9x14 size. 
Learn the "ins-and-outs" of basic lead came technique- easy to apply to future projects of any size! This class is a great way to round out your stained glass education beyond the limits of copper foil. 
See below for lead came patterns. Lead came for project is included, glass is not- so bring glass with you on first night or buy in the studio. The size of your piece will be approx legal paper size.
Use the patterns below to choose your glass!

​

INTERMEDIATE STUDENTS - those returning to lead came at an intermediate level may choose -or design- their own pattern for the class based on your own skill/comfort level.
PLEASE  BRING YOUR GLASS ON THE FIRST NIGHT.
   

Commissions

We can create an original stained glass piece just for you! From sun-catchers to full doors and windows, we design and fabricate every panel in-house, with as much or little design involvement as the client desires. Call for an estimate today!

Restorations

Full professional level conservation and restoration is available for aging and oxidized panels. Stained Glass Association of America standards for restoration are observed in our top level process. We also offer various other levels of partial restoration based on your needs.

Repairs

Glass can be fragile, and breaks happen! If you have some glass that met an unfortunate demise, but is not aged enough to need a full restoration, we offer repairs for any glass type. Lead came, copper foil, lamps, 3D crafts and sun-catchers have all been in and out to see the glass doctor here!
