Stained Glass
I find the sparkle of colors found in stained-glass to be so uplifting. The way the colors are reflected into the home and move with the light of the sun from place to place throughout the day is magical. I think that both leaded and stained-glass windows are among the most beautiful additions you can bring to a home. We have designed many stained-glass windows to help people create a stunning focal point in a room, to replace an unsightly view with a beautiful one, or replace stained-glass where it once existed, but was lost to history.



















The Noble Daisy (detail)
The Noble Daisy is a stained-glass triptych in the window of an Arts & Crafts kitchen’s eat-in area. We designed both the kitchen, and the leaded-glass for it. This photo is a detail of the window’s far right panel, showing the vibrant coloration of the glass, and the Shasta Daisy. The flower features prominently in the homeowners’ garden, and is one of their favorite flowers.

A view of the eating nook demonstrates the colorful impact leaded and stained-glass can bring to a room. Note how the glass works with the wall and trim colors while bringing a focal point to the room.

An exterior view of The Noble Daisy illustrates that the enjoyment of stained-glass is not limited to the interior. This window looks equally pleasing from the garden!

The Kiva Flower
We designed this beautiful window for an Arts and Crafts foursquare populated by a single-mom and her two active daughters. We were so struck by the feminine energy of this household that CJ created what he named the Kiva flower. A tri-petal flower, of which, each petal represents a different Kiva girl. This view shows the window from the exterior. It is situated on the home’s stair landing.

A detail of The Kiva Flower shows the pretty yellow and amber heart of the tri-petaled flower. We used mottled clear glass to obscure the view outside the home, and bring privacy to the interior.

This view of The Kiva Flower highlights the streaking fround in the green glass, and the wonderful air bubbles that abound in the clear mottled glass.

In the design of The Kiva Flower window, a field of grass is suggested with the deep green striated glass found at the base of the composition.

Victorian China Cabinet Leaded-Glass
We designed the leaded-glass for the doors of this built-in buffet. A simple and unfussy pattern lets the contents of the cabinet shine through.

Beveled glass adds interest to the pattern of the china cabinet’s leaded-glass. Clear glass lets the cabinets quaint pottery collection shine through.

The First Leaf of Fall Stained Glass
The dynamic composition of the leaded-glass featured on the library table-bookcase of the Falling Leaves’ roomset illustrates the impact leaded-glass can bring to a piece of furniture. The triangles in the composition represent the leaves of a tree – the bright orange one signifies the first leaf to turn color in the Fall season. The striated amber glass represents the trunks of trees, and works strikingly with the tones of the quatersawn wood.

The First Leaf of Fall Stained Glass
The buttresses that feature prominently in the Falling Leaves roomset are inset with leaded glass panels representing deciduous trees. Green and russet colored triangles form the leaf canopy of the tree.

Mid-Century Church “Lantern” Glass
The stained-glass of this architect designed Mid-Century church had been badly damaged, and we were asked to oversee the restoration. We were able to source glass that matched the original, but the glass from France is no longer manufactured in the large sheets needed. Sensitive to the architects’ original vision, CJ redesigned the damaged panels to accommodate modern glass sheet dimensions. The glass lets natural light into the church from, what the architect named, the “Lantern” located in the peak of the roof.

An exterior view of the church shows the position of the lantern, and one side of its triangular stained-glass. Two walls of the lantern are glass, and the others solid. The colored glass reflects on the pale color of the other lantern walls, bringing the colors of nature indoors.

The White Rose Dining Room Glass (detail)
This is one of the rose panels from The White Rose dining room’s built-in buffet. The White Rose acts as our showroom, and we designed the stained-glass to fit with the theme of the room. The roses in the buffet glass are the red roses in the room. The rest are white. CJ colored these roses red, to illustrate the infinite variety of nature. After all, what are white roses without red roses to stand in contrast to them?

In order to further illustrate the infinite variety found in nature, CJ designed the middle panels of The White Rose buffet with these stylized trees. The addition of trees offers a view into the larger realm of nature beyond the theme of white roses.

A full view of The White Rose dining room shows the buffet’s stained glass in context to the rest of the room. The colors of the glass bring vibrant pops of color to the cool black of the room’s trim and the warm earth tones that dominate the rest of the room.
