Shopping FAQs

Which credit cards do you accept?

Visa, Mastercard and Discover/Novus cards are accepted, as well as debit cards which bear the Visa or Mastercard logo.  Back to Top

Is this real glass?

Yes, it is. Depending on the design and other considerations, your window will be built with lead came or copper foil with solder. Back to Top

What is stained glass?

When the glass is being manufactured, metal oxides are added to the molten glass. After cooling, these metals create the different colors. If we need particular details, like a face, hand, or animal's eye, special glass paint is applied to the glass and then fired in a kiln to permanently fuse the paint to the surface of the glass.

How about leaded glass?

Most folks use the term leaded glass to refer to clear, beveled glass like that seen in many entry doors. Beveled glass has been ground and polished at an angle all around the edge of each piece. These pieces are then assembled into windows with lead came, just like a stained glass window. Back to Top

Can the colors fade?

No. Stained glass will dissolve in water in about 800 years, however. Occasionally, paint will flake away, but this takes many years.  Back to Top

How do I order?

Just call to talk to Sue. Once she has an idea of what you want, a $40.00 design fee is charged to prepare a sketch for your approval. When you have approved the sketch and color selection, a deposit of the materials, sales tax, and one-half the labor is collected to get us started building your order. Back to Top
