Tiffany stained glass technique

At the workshop, we will explore the world of glass and create unique decorations that will adorn your Christmas trees or bring joy to your loved ones.

During the 4-hour workshop, you will learn the Tiffany stained glass technique, in which pieces of glass are wrapped in copper foil and joined together with a soldering iron. The mentors will guide you through the entire process – from planning and preparing a sketch to the final production. First, we will design the piece and prepare templates for cutting the glass pieces. This is followed by precise cutting and grinding of the glass, after which we will connect the individual pieces into pendants using soldering irons. If you wish, you can further enhance the final product by patinating the joints.

The workshop is an excellent opportunity for anyone who wants to learn the basics of stained glass techniques and create something unique.
