stain glass

Stained glass is art created by assembling colored glass pieces into decorative designs or images. These glass pieces are cut to shape and held together with strips of lead or other materials, forming windows or artwork. When sunlight passes through, the vibrant colors illuminate the space with glowing, intricate patterns. Historically, stained glass is often found in churches and cathedrals, where it adds beauty and storytelling to the architecture. The process combines craftsmanship, artistry, and engineering to transform glass into luminous, centuries-old masterpieces or modern designs.
