Studio Tours

A Guided Tour of Our Studio perfect for groups of 4 or more

The tour lasts 30 to 40 minutes and subjects covered are as follows:

• A short history of glass and stained glass.
• Siena’s role in the diffusion of this art.
• The making of a stained glass panel:

Design, cartoon, choosing the colours, cutting, painting, firing at high temperature, leading, soldering, cementing and cleaning.

A comparison between the possibilities obtained with modern technology (kilns, cutters, solders), allowing a better quality thanks to major control, and methods used in the past.

An illustration of “fusing” and the objects it is possible to make with this technique.
