Stained Glass

About this course

Participants design and make a stained-glass panel, working through the process from an initial design to cutting glass, leading and soldering. The panel is approximately A4-sized, uses between three and eight pieces of glass, and must include at least three straight lines, with no curved border. Teaching takes place in a small group of no more than six, allowing for individual tuition throughout the workshop.

What you'll learn

• Develop a stained-glass panel design within specified size and construction limits
• Cut glass for a simple panel design
• Use lead to assemble the cut glass pieces
• Solder the components to complete a stained-glass panel

Is this course right for you?

The course is labelled Beginner and is structured around introducing the stained-glass process from design through to a finished panel. Participants work individually within a small group and handle glass, lead and heat from soldering irons. The source does not state whether previous experience is required.

• Individual tuition is provided within a group of up to six participants
• The class involves working with glass, lead and heat from soldering irons

Before you go
