— Our History
Timeless Craft, Shaped by Light
For centuries, stained glass has been shaped by hand, patience, and light. From early European cathedrals to historic places of worship, this art form has always served as a bridge between craftsmanship, storytelling, and architecture.
At Scottish Stained Glass, we honor these origins by preserving traditional methods cutting, leading, soldering, and finishing while ensuring every piece meets modern standards of precision, longevity, and beauty.

Stories Told Through Glass
The history of stained glass is deeply rooted in sacred spaces. Some of the earliest known examples date back to the 7th century, with windows designed to educate, inspire, and convey biblical stories through light and color.
During the Gothic and Medieval periods, stained glass flourished across Europe, filling cathedrals with intricate rose windows and towering compositions each panel composed of hundreds of hand-cut pieces joined with remarkable precision.

Preserving the Past, Creating for Today
Inspired by centuries of European stained glass, Scottish Stained Glass continues this legacy through master craftsmanship and deep respect for tradition. Founder Martin Faith learned the art of traditional glassmaking in Scotland, where historic techniques remain fundamental.
Today, those same principles guide every project we create combining time honored methods with carefully selected materials to produce stained glass designed for churches, homes, and architectural spaces meant to endure for generations.
