Purple Stained Glass is a small studio based in Leicester offering a range of services from creating a new piece of glass art for your home or garden, to lovingly restoring old or broken existing stained glass back to it original splendour. I also repair and resize stained glass that can then be encapsulated into a double glazed unit. This is a great idea if you want to replace your windows or doors but want to keep your original leaded lights.

Having worked with stained glass overlay (a technique of applying a coloured or texture film and self adhesive lead onto glass –Click here for an example- ) for the past 10 years, I decided to explore the wonders of using the still very traditional techniques used to make stained and leaded lights. I started with copper foil ( the edge of each piece of cut glass is covered in a thin piece of foil which is then soldered together – Click here for an example – ) making sun catchers, terrariums and lampshades for family and friends. I then decided to try my hand at leaded lights. After a few lessons and experimenting for my family I started to get requests from more and more people to either create a new design from scratch using ideas we developed together, or to restore old existing stained glass that need some attention.

Thus The Purple Stained Glass Studio was started. (named because everything I make for myself always ends up having some purple in)
