It is impossible to ignore the stunning beauty intrinsic to stained glass windows. The strong lines and bold colors immediately draw you into what could be described as another world. The light refracts gracefully when it passes through these stained glass masterpieces, especially on the precisely chiseled beveled glass. What’s more, the feeling of luxury one gets when standing in front of one, is rarely matched with almost any other type of glass work. While the elegance of stained glass is unquestionable, some of the other benefits of stained glass may not be as apparent. However, at Fort Collins Stained Glass, we know from experience, there are many other key benefits stained glass brings to our customer’s homes and churches.
