Leaded Glass for Privacy and Natural Light

Leaded glass, a cornerstone of our offerings at Scottish Stained Glass in New Orleans, presents an elegant solution for those seeking the delicate interplay of privacy and light. Distinct from the color-rich stained glass, leaded glass relies on its texture and patterns to provide both seclusion and luminosity. Its charm lies in its ability to create a private sanctuary, while still inviting the soft, natural light that is so characteristic of the Crescent City’s architecture.

Our collection of leaded glass designs is as varied as the city itself, ranging from intricate floral motifs that echo the gardens of Uptown to bold, contemporary patterns that resonate with the modern aesthetics of the Warehouse District. Each design is tailored to not just meet, but exceed our client’s expectations, ensuring that each installation is a unique reflection of their personal style and the architectural character of their space.
