Custom Glass — Residential
Michaelé specializes in unique stained glass creations. Whether you are looking to turn your home into a work of art with a transom, cabinet inserts, or a free-standing stained glass creation, Michaelé can customize your piece to fit your space.
enlighten your home with custom stained glass
You want an entry that feels welcoming, not exposed. We design doors, sidelights, and transoms that soften the view while keeping rooms bright. We size reinforcement for long service, set profiles that feel solid, and finish edges that look clean up close.
Where custom glass shines at home:
- Front doors and sidelights
- Transoms that brighten long halls
- Feature panels for kitchens or stair landings
Restoring Historic Luxfer Prism Transoms
Luxfer glass transoms were typically installed in the upper registers of windows in both industrial and commercial spaces. These ribbed, 4-inch square sheets of glass used refraction to illuminate large, deep spaces with natural light.
New Bern downtown architects and builders installed many of these to capture the natural light before electric lights were invented. Michaelé has restored four of these glorious turn-of-the-century works of art.
Restoring a Historic Transom
We specialize in stained glass repairs and restoration of stained glass patterns or scenes. Storms, dirt, neglect, and other factors, as well as the simple passage of time, all play a part in wearing stained glass. With proper color matching and careful attention to detail, chips, cracks, missing panes, and other problems can be repaired.
As experienced stained glass repair artists, we can carefully make these replacements and restore the strength and beauty of your piece or pieces of stained glass
