Conservation

When required, cleaning should always be undertaken in a localised, well-controlled manner and with full consideration of the risks posed by the methods and materials employed. It is only through the correct conservation of our existing stained glass that we can hope to preserve the art form so it continues to illuminate Britains buildings for centuries to come.

Restorations

In the restoration and conservation of stained glass, it is essential to fully consider all components of a window to ensure its integrity and longevity. Every element, from the glass itself to the lead cames and supporting structures, must be meticulously examined. We will identify and address areas of concern and make clear, justifiable decisions on the next stages.

Exquisitely Handcrafted Stained Glass Artistry

“People are like stained glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.” - Elizabeth Kubler Ross

At its essence, stained glass design is the skill of manipulating natural light to create art. The ancient art of stained glass has been used throughout history to illuminate churches and cathedrals, stately homes and castles and private homes.

Stained glass specialists are few and far between. As one of very few stained glass craftspeople in the country, Nick Easthope of Easthope Stained Glass studios in Folkestone, Kent, works on restoration, conservation and private commissions.

"It was a pleasure working with Edward and Easthope on the Arding & Hobbs project. Easthope were extremely knowledgeable and reliable, and they quickly grasped the architects aspirations in relation to restoring the heritage glass features. We certainly wouldn’t hesitate to work with you again and hope that we can collaborate on another project soon."
