Behind The Glass
The Artisan Process
A glimpse into the daily rhythm of the studio. From initial sketch to final polish, every step is executed entirely by hand.
Patterning & Cutting
Once the design is finalized, exact templates are drafted. We hand-select sheets of colored and textured glass, scoring and breaking each segment manually to ensure a precise fit against the lead came.
Leading & Soldering
The cut glass pieces are woven together using extruded lead profiles. Every joint is meticulously soldered on both sides, transforming loose fragments into a rigid, unified, and enduring structure.
