Old World Glass, Beveled Leaded Clears

This Beveled Leaded window, was created for a home in Old Town Santa Ana, There you will find many beautiful homes with much character.

The beveled glass in the center was made out of 3/8" Crystal using jewels on the tangents to add sparkle. As you can the water glass, which is highly textured adds sparkle and interest. I just loved this window. I am very proud of it.

Frank Lloyd Wright Style windows

I recently worked for a private home owner in Newport Beach, CA.  The home was designed by the late Todd Schooler, a brilliant builder of fine homes. He built specifically homes echoing the design style of Frank Lloyd Wright.

I had the privilege of making many entry systems in his homes over the years and her is one of them.

Looking to the Left you see the beauty and
 of design, simply sophisticated. Great Job by
Design Team.

Classical Glass Studios was apart of helping to create the Donor Wall for this prestigious project.

De Carter, Artist Owner of Classical Glass Studios, was to Carve different materials, Cherry Wood, Slate Stone, and Glass in order to complete the project. Each piece was hand masked one at a time, then taken into the sandblasting booth while in an air fed hood, blasting hose in hand, pushing 120 grit aluminum oxide, flying fast at the material in order for it to leave an indention in the surface of the stock. Some of the pieces were filled with copper paint, some with silver, before being mounted into the assemblies you see before you. Proofing, Typesetting, are other skills I have come to rely on in order to complete such projects.

This is one of the donor walls at HOAG. It is located on Pacific Coast Highway, between Superior and Newport Beach Blvd.

It was such a privilage to be apart of the design team there at HOAG. It was a process of samples, collaboration, and design that created the professional space you see before you.
