Discover the fascinating world of stained glass and craft your very own unique piece with the skilled stained glass artist Margaux.
As you arrive, you'll be warmly welcomed with a drink to enjoy a friendly and relaxed moment.
The experience begins with an introduction to the basics of stained glass, where you'll learn about the tools and techniques used in the Tiffany method. You'll discover how using copper foil instead of lead creates a unique lighting effect.
Next, you'll select the colours of the glass and design a custom pattern for your stained glass. You'll be inspired by the color palette and patterns proposed by the artist to create your own masterpiece.
Then comes the practical part. You'll cut the glass pieces according to a template, and grind them to the desired shape. The application of the copper foil on each piece and the soldering of the edges with tin will solidify the whole.
Once the assembly is complete, you'll receive guidance on finishing touches to make your piece truly unique and exceptional.
Finally, you'll leave the workshop with your very own handmade stained glass, ready to be displayed at home and enhance your interior.

Margaux began her artistic journey in Belgium at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, where she studied sculpture and received her Master's degree with distinction.
However, this was just the start of her creative exploration! She quickly delved into the use of light to add an extra dimension to her artistic work.
Her passion led her to the captivating world of stained glass, where she learned the craft's techniques and secrets from a master stained glass artist before starting her own business.
Through her stained glass creations, Margaux is able to represent invisible phenomena to the naked eye and make them accessible to everyone. Her work is a celebration of the history and tradition of stained glass, infused with her own modern creativity.
Her exceptional vision and mastery of the stained glass craft have earned her numerous prestigious awards and exhibitions, including the Boghossian Foundation Prize in 2021 and an exhibition at Villa Empain.
