Martin will create a glass design that is unique to your commission.
Designing for stained glass has some important rules, but with careful thought and plenty imagination you can have the stained glass item of your dreams.  
All stained glass items produced by Martin are handcrafted using the traditional leaded came and copper foil (also known as Tiffany foil construction) methods. If you like a particular design Martin can make it to match your colour schemes. All he requires is a sample of material, wallpaper or paint chart.
Martin is happy to use your own design, adapt your ideas to create a design, or create an original design for your commission. If you see anything you like, he can give current costs of reproducing any of the pieces shown in the gallery or create a design to suit your needs.
 
All glass used is traditional stained glass of the highest quality.
Martin ensures that projects use stained glass of the highest quality. The glass itself is coloured, textured and clear, the colours deriving from metallic oxides incorporated into the glass during its manufacture and are therefore permanent.
 
 
Both leaded and copper foil techniques used for maximum design flexibility.
Martin utilises traditional construction methods, with either lead came or copper foil (also known as Tiffany foil construction), to produce stained glass designs and commissions.
 
All commissions aim to fit the needs & desires of the client.
Martin works closely with clients to ensure that the end product is as near to their requirements as the medium allows. Some clients have very clear ideas of what they want, and may produce a sketch or photograph from which he will develop the stained glass design. If however, the client is unsure of the design they want, Martin will work with the client using his extensive range of stained glass books and patterns.
