History
Stained glass evolved from ancient glassmaking and became prominent in European churches; modern studios use copper-foil techniques popularized in the late 19th century and adapt them for small-format projects.
Conservation
Studios often recycle glass offcuts and follow lead-safe soldering practices; ask about recycling and material sourcing to reduce waste.
