Our glass mosaics are created by mortaring stained glass onto Wedi board, then grouted and polished. Wedi board is a lightweight, indoor/outdoor product ideally suited for mosaic work. Wood is also used as a substrate and we carve out the wood and inlay the glass pieces. We also create mosaics by gluing stained glass onto glass panels (glass on glass). If you have questions about available mosaics or commissions please contact us.
