Our mission is to create an environment where creativity can flourish, secrets can be shared, artists can inspire each other and together we can exceed the expectations of all our different clients needs.

We specialize in designing unique custom decorative glass. Our work has included Entry doors, Windows, Sidelights, Skylights, Transoms, Cabinets, Domes, Churches, Offices, Restaurants and Casinos. We thank the ongoing relationships with local builders, architects, designers, door and window companies as well as countless glass companies whose repeat business and referrals keep us busy. No matter how large or small your job, you can expect a superior product, with un-matched customer service.

We encourage you to visit our spectacular warehouse showroom and see in person the beauty and elegance that decorative glass can bring to your home. If you don’t want to commission us for a project we would be happy to teach you how to make it yourself. We offer a wide range of classes, taught by a talented staff of glass artists. Teaching helps us share our knowledge with the community and expand the appreciation of a traditional, handcrafted art medium. “The more glass is seen, the more the interest in it grows”
