The Process
Producing a Design
Every commissioned piece is made to order. It is truly a one-of-a-kind work of art, hand made from design to completion. These are all originals and no two are alike. All pattern work is hand drawn to make your piece an heirloom that will be in your family for generations, large or small.
The Waiting List
The 2023 Commission list is closed. We are currently taking orders for 2023. The creation of stained glass is labor-intensive. Each project gets done in the order in which it was received and so on until I get to the end of the list!
Pricing
Price is based on the overall size and complexity of the design. Every step of the process is done by hand in the traditional Tiffany method. This includes designing, cutting, grinding, foiling, soldering, applying patina or embellishments, cleaning, and sometimes framing. I do my best to design my patterns to match your budget. The more room there is in a budget, the crazier I can get with respect to complexity and details. I apply consistent standards and levels of care to all of my commissions so that your piece will last.
