Did you know that the art of glassmaking has been practiced for thousands of years? The use of glass in art goes as far back as the ancient days of Mesopotamia, even before Ancient Egyptian times. Later, artisans began using colored glass to construct windows, leading to the development of stained glass as an art form.
Today, stained glass windows can be found all over the world, even in people’s homes! These magnificent works of art not only stun us with their visual beauty, but also have the purpose of providing light and privacy.
Below, we’ve listed some beautiful places that you can use stained glass in your Denver home.
