Transom Windows and Art Glass

What is a transom window?

These type of windows refer to their location above a doors or another windows transom; a beam at the top of the window or door. These windows come in different shapes and custom sizes for the home, business, or whatever type of building it is. These types of higher up windows are great candidates for art glass because their location shows them off well and usually means they will have different types of lighting coming through them throughout the day.

Adding art glass such as sandblasting, cast glass, or stained glass is a great way to show off your style, add any privacy needed, and upgrade your transom windows.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! 2023 is here!

Here’s to another year of creative art glass for our fabulous clients! We hope everyone had a great 2022 and below is some of the wonderful art glass and custom glass projects we got to work on:

Art Glass - Installed or Framed and Hung

We create custom designs for our clients that can be installed into windows, doors, and entryways. Or, they can be framed with chains added to the side for hanging in front of a window or anywhere you would like in your home. Plus, if you move, it is easy to take your art with you. But once you are in your forever home, you can really make it your own! Add art glass overlay or stained glass to your home (and even add some privacy).

Work with our designers in creating your custom art glass today. They have many, many years of experience and design in a plethora of styles - creating in classic, modern, and unique genres. Check out our Gallery page here and see what inspires you!

Lead and Bevel in Art Glass

Lead and bevel, leadlite, or colorless stained glass is perfect for windows, doors, and entryways. They do not tie you down to a color while using the lines, textures, and a great variety of bevels to make stunning and unique designs. We can design around your level of opacity and matching the theme of your home, office, or business. Check out our Lead and Bevel page here to see our past works and find the inspiration for your new lead and bevel glass!

Underwater Door Insert

We loved spending time on creating this underwater adventure for our client! It is art glass overlay, dual glazed, and installed in our clients door.

This art is on one solid piece of tempered glass, making strong and durable! We were able to create a gorgeous design that matched our clients wants perfectly. Inspired by creatures the client had in their own fish tank, we used stunning colors, textures, glass jewels, lead lines, and glass globs and eyes to create this dimensional piece. We all played a role in this amazing project. Oh, and I should mention - this is one of a set of two! Phew, a job well done to our designers and creators!

Multi Panel Cliffs and Waves

This multi panel set of stained glass overlay has the design continue from one panel to the next. It really lightens up the hallway and adds a beautiful view as people pass by. This design features trees on a cliff overlooking a breaking waves and swooping birds. Clients work with our designers to get their ideal art glass created!

Art Glass Scenes in Windows

Windows are wonderful for letting in the light and the air, but sometimes the view is not very interesting. Using art glass, we can create something more your style! to look at!

The kitchen window below faced a brick wall with a window that could have the neighbors peering in on occasion. The solution was a stained glass look inspired from a beloved home with lots of green grassy property. Our designers created the inspired scene to span and connect all four windows, giving our client the view the really want to see!

It’s always nice having a view while doing dishes =P
