We must describe the traditional stained glass window as figurative, painted and leaded. It is understood as traditional stained glass as opposed to modern or contemporary stained glass, which for many years has been exclusively abstract and has often abandoned the use of lead and used other techniques.

The techniques used in contemporary stained glass have been the dalle de verre and concrete, laminated glass, painted glass with enamel. In the construction of leaded glass, once the project has been chosen, it is necessary to decide how to execute each of the windows. Handcrafted stained glass windows are built entirely by hand and only for some specific stages are power tools used. After cutting the glass, the stained glass windows are painted by hand with grisaille and enamels. Generally, after the application of each paint, it is baked in the oven at over 600ºC. This process permanently adheres the paint to the glass and is resistant to outdoor conditions.

In the case of a well-constructed stained glass window, it is not expected to plan its restoration until after several tens of years and a periodic observation is usually enough to detect any incidence. In the case of traditional religious stained glass we have extensive catalogs from which to gather ideas and inspiration with different pictorial treatments and compositions for the same iconography. The prices of traditional painted stained glass vary depending on the material chosen, the process and the hours spent by each artisan. The prices are very variable, contact us without obligation and we will prepare an estimate detailing the glass, enamel, paint for each stained glass. There is no limit to the size of the stained glass windows. There are large facades built entirely with stained glass. It should be divided into panels that should not be larger than 1mx1m. In general, the smaller the panel, the better it is preserved.
