Church Stained Glass Artist In Florida – Csilla Soós
The church stained glass windows prices, most of which depict saints and/or religious symbols, depend largely on the method of manufacture; assembly technique: leaded or Tiffany; whether the stained glass needs to be placed in protective glass.
Also, whether it is to be Schwarzlott painted, to have beveled edges or requires fusing through melting, i.e. whether the glass is to be fused.

CHURCH STAINED GLASS WINDOWS AND RELIGIOUS LEADED GLASS
Stained Glass Artist Csilla Soós with Asztrik Várszegi, former Archabbot of Pannonhalma
The main characteristic of church/religious stained glass designs is that it mostly depicts saints and/or religious symbols.
They are typically larger in size, as a church or chapel has significantly larger windows than, for example, a private house. The religiously themed stained glass is painted with one or more coats of Schwarzlott glass paint on the parts depicting saints and symbols. The painting is then fired several times at 800-1000 degrees Celsius. Painting such a surface can take up to 3 to 5 days, as the kiln needs to heat up and cool down. The glass should not be suddenly put into/removed from the hot kiln, as this could seriously damage or even break the glass in the process due to heat fluctuations.
Stained glass creations for a place of worship will therefore often be more costly due to their complexity and labor-intensiveness.

Important factors to consider before replacing church stained glass windows:
– Will the existing frames remain in the church window or will the replacement be done with complete frames?
– Scaffolding: when removing and installing stained glass, the part in front of the window in question must be scaffolded
– if a new window insert is needed in the existing frame: templates can be used to make the insulated 3-layer stained glass (weight capacity of sashes, hinges must be calculated)
1 square feet of stained glass window can weigh 4,1-5,1 pounds depending on the piece
1 square feet of insulated stained glass window can weigh up to 6,6-7,4 pounds
– if a completely new frame is required, it is advisable to have the wooden frame manufactured first to make the stained glass window to the exact size (in this case, the existing frame must be cut out of the wall)
TIP: CHURCH STAINED GLASS MAKER EXPERIENCE
If your church window frames are old and the glass layer is plain, they probably do not provide the best insulation. As a result, heating bills are unreasonably high, and worshippers can often feel cold during services.
You may still want to keep these frames: but you have to calculate the SURPLUS WEIGHT due to the stained glass and the modern 3-layer insulation.
A church with 3 layers of insulated stained glass will not only be more aesthetically pleasing but also more comfortable for the congregation.
I’ve done church stained glass windows before:
– entirely for the whole church,
– I’ve also made stained-glass windows depicting just a single saint, for example in the confession booth and sacristy
– I have also restored church stained glass.

Stained glass became increasingly popular in the early 12th century, and for centuries it was used exclusively on church buildings. Because of their solemn, sublime atmosphere, they were often used to decorate churches, where, in addition to their ornamental function, they also had an educational function.

The stained glass windows of churches depicted various biblical scenes, biblical figures, saints, and patrons of the given place of worship. These pieces invariably stand the test of time. Proof of this can be seen in the works dating back hundreds of years, which can still be admired in churches today. They have survived almost intact and retain their aesthetic value. The wonderful hues of sunlight filtered through the colored windows, the play of light in the unique patterns and shapes captivate and delight the eye. It is a wonderful sight to see the light streaming through them, and the patterns and motifs projected on the floors and walls, in all the colors of the rainbow.Although its uses are extremely varied, this decorative technique is most often used for windows. The window is an important element of the church building, it illuminates the interior, protects against external influences and is an important element of the interior design of the building. Leaded Tiffany glass is made up of small pieces of glass, which are placed in a lead frame and filled with an adhesive. In addition to being pleasing to the eye, church glass work has other functions, such as heat and sound insulation. Stained glass is extremely fragile and can be severely damaged by the elements. Restoration must be carried out regularly, otherwise irreparable damage may occur.
I produce stained glass depicting religious images (biblical scenes, saints) for religious institutions, churches, chapels, and houses of prayer. I repair stained glass and restore old, damaged colored stained glass depicting saints – I make religious-themed stained glass from A to Z.
Stained glass, Tiffany restoration is a complex process that should only be done by experts. It is the job of the craftsmen to assess the damage and choose the most suitable method. Therefore, please contact me if you need a glass craftsman for the restoration of church stained glass
