Biography
Leonard Wilson, the designer has been
performing the art of stained glass for over 30 years. Carolyn and
Leonard as a team, specialize in fused glass art pieces, exquisite
beveled hangings, and unique glass boxes.
Window Hanging and Glass Box Process
The hangings and boxes have been designed, hand cut, and assembled using
the Tiffany tradition of foiling. This technique enhances the delicacy
of the design, while lending greater structural strength than the
conventional method of stained glass using channeled lead. The pieces
are soldered together. Copper patina can be applied or the piece can be
left silver. |

Fused Glass Process
Working with the process of fused glass, we design functional and non
functional unique art pieces. We also combine fused glass with
stained glass.
