Preserving Traditional Leaded Glass Art
At Paul Vitrail, we carry forward traditional art glass design workflows, combining geometric metalwork with custom stained glass panel engineering.
Classic Came Assembly
Leaded glass design requires absolute precision. To engineer window partitions and ceilings that handle structural settlements, our studio relies on premium zinc, brass, and copper came channels. This allows individual glass modules to rest securely without experiencing pressure points.
Each joint is hand-fluxed and soldered using lead-free compounds in our local studio, preventing air leakage and offering a stable, clean finish.
Water-Tight Cementing
We apply a traditional linseed-oil based black cement beneath our metal channels. This sealant prevents rain infiltration and dampens sound vibrations, protecting structural glass art.
Commitment to Craft Longevity
We use premium lead-free solder alloys and support historic glass preservation programs.
Lead-Free Soldering
We use premium silver-tin alloys for interior residential partition framing, ensuring a safe indoor environment.
Zinc & Brass Came
We choose zinc and brass reinforcements for large-scale domes and entry doors, offering structural stability against winds.
Glass Recycling
All clean glass offcuts are sorted and recycled back to glassmakers to reduce materials waste profiles.
