Stained glass, manufactured as far back as the time of the Egyptians and the Romans, is found adorning some of the most beautiful buildings in the world, and in Europe, stained glass is synonymous with the large cathedrals that house them.
Seen as a curious and interesting process to many, stained glass requires and combines great artistry with technical engineering skills. Small pieces of stained glass, made by a process of adding metallic salts to glass during its manufacture, are arranged to produce various images or designs, held in place by strips of spider web-like lead. Knowing how to achieve workable designs require an in depth skill with an eye for design.
