We would like to wish all our customers, clients, students, friends & colleagues a Warm & Merry Christmas. A big ‘Thank You’ for your custom & support this year, through all its challenges & wishing you all the best for 2021.
We would like to start by thanking all our customers, clients, colleagues and friends for their continued support through these challenging times.
On a positive note, the Ruskin Glass Centre & Cafe has announced its full reopening on 8th September, with further measures in place to keep visitors, customers and staff safe.
We are also working towards the possibility of returning to run workshops & classes in the near future. The Studio has put in place a number of safety measures for visitors and this is being reviewed regularly and updated according to Government & Public Health England guidance.
In the meantime we are asking for expressions of interest from regulars and new, who would consider returning to attend workshops & classes. There will be a number of changes, which will include smaller groups (maximum 2) and strict hygiene measures in place.
It still stands that any unused ‘Gift Vouchers’ will have their ‘Valid to Date’ extended, so when safe to do so we can move forward and make bookings.
Thank you for your patience & understanding.

These are some of the latest #stained glass restoration and repair works the studio has just completed.
This Edwardian two panel front door in #Bromsgrove, #Worcestershire has just been re-fitted.
A 1930’s stained glass side screen with several breaks needed part restoration and rebuild in #Stourbridge.
This wonderful #Edwardian stained glass front door entrance in #Wombourne, Staffordshire has been restored using heritage glass and stock art glasses.
Our workshop offers a full repair and restoration service of stained glass, leaded lights, doors and windows. We work with residential, commercial and ecclesiastic properties and can repair a single break within a window to a full restoration of heritage stained glass panels.
The studio has recently been to survey a series of 1930’s stained glass windows that will need some repairs and restoration over the coming months. 
Bay Window – leaded lights and stained glass transoms
The stained glass and leaded panels are in original metal frames, which also need some restoration in areas. The surrounding woodwork frames are in amazing condition and a testimony to the materials used and also the regular maintenance since they were fitted.
Wonderful Tulip design in the Bathroom Window side panels
The stained glass has been designed throughout the house with some amazing patterns, in-keeping with the time, but also has an Arts & Crafts feel to some of the elements. The stained glass contains some beautiful colours and a lot within the patterns are handmade mouthblown colours. It really is a privilege to view these wonderful windows and house.
The studio has been working on designing and making a period Victorian Stained Glass toplight window. Using a traditional Victorian pattern and glass colours, the new window has been made to fit the bespoke size of the aperture above the door and is more in-keeping with the age of the house.
The window has now been fitted above the customers front door in Stourbridge.
