Title
stained glass by the glass knight
Description
In 2002 we where looking for stained glass panels to add the finishing touches to our house. The 3 panels would have to be perfect to compliment our "gothic" inspired decorating. What more than stained glass to balance the subtle gargoyle sconces and Loch Ness monster sculpture that stretches across the six foot long buffet. Originally we were looking for old windows from Scotland. After traveling from city to city, antique store to antique store, we never seemed to find what we were really looking for. Either the size or the pattern was a compromise. There seemed to be only one solution.
We both had shown an interest in learning about stained glass and with our technical backgrounds we figured we can create our own masterpieces. Easier said than done, but we gave it a start. First we went to a book store and got a book "how to make stained glass" .The next day we went to a local glass supplier and bought the basic tools and equipment and some pieces of art glass.The process of learning had started. While making our first small projects, like small panels and sun catchers, we learned more and more, special about that can be done and, even more important, what not, with glass.
We make only stained glass projects from our own designs ,or when it's a special custom design, we use the customers idea or picture to create a panel that fulfills their wish for a stained glass window.
