Stained Glass For The Modern Age

Stained Glass Windows As Art

When most people think of stained glass they likely immediately associated it with churches–and they wouldn’t be amiss. Probably the next most popular applications in the mind of the general public are the victorian or craftsman era of design. In fact, many people who own a home built in one of those periods have antique stained glass somewhere in their house already. This is because during those eras designers like Frank Lloyd Wright made the connection between home decor and stained glass and happily the “new” tradition continues in decor today. At Scottish Stained Glass we are happy to carry on the work of a design genius such as Frank Lloyd Wright and others who so heavily influenced the stained glass we see on homes today.
