Engaging in stained glass artistry offers a unique and rewarding experience. However, it's important to acknowledge that working with materials such as glass, lead, and flux carries certain health risks if proper precautions are not taken. This is especially pertinent for pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers, as exposure to lead and certain chemical fumes can pose risks to both maternal health and child development.

Care
Each glass piece is handcrafted with care, and we recommend handling it just as thoughtfully. While durable, glass is still a fragile material — avoid dropping or exposing it to sudden temperature changes. A gentle hand wash is all it takes to keep your item looking its best. With a little care, your piece will stay beautiful for years to come.
Design
Our dedication to excellence extends beyond materials; it encompasses the artistry and craftsmanship illustrated in every piece we create.
