A time-honored tradition, creating stained glass windows is an ancient craft that has changed little since the first cathedrals rose up in towns over Europe. To tell a story visually, to emblazon holy images with glorious color, and to fill a darkened space with warmth and light are enduring human desires.
The team of craftsmen at Azure Stained Glass Studio specializes in the fabrication, preservation, restoration, and repair, of ecclesiastical, commercial, and residential stained glass. As a full service studio Azure Stained Glass will work with you from conception to completion of your project. Founders Ben Parsons and Mary Zodnik each have 30+ years of field experience working with stained glass in worship spaces as well as homes and businesses.
As specialists in stained glass restoration, they are also contemporary creators in their own right. Their fine arts backgrounds have enriched and deepened their work with glass, and their years of experience speak to their commitment to the craft.

Services
For window restoration and repair in a church or worship space, we first survey the condition of the existing windows and frames, and offer options for different phases of work: replacing or repairing broken panes or bulged panels; repairing or replacing wood, steel or aluminum framing; restoring historic painted glass; and, if required, complete re-leading of the windows.
The first step in assessing a restoration project is often a visit to the site. Notes, measurements and photographs are taken to help determine the best course for a restoration program. While every project presents a unique set of conditions, the following examples represent some of the most common problems we encounter with windows in need of repair.
AZURE is open by appointment and would be happy to meet with you at our studio to discuss your leaded window project. We are also available to personally inspect your leaded windows, provide a condition assessment and submit a proposal for restoration. Azure Stained Glass Studio is located in the historic North Collinwood neighborhood of Cleveland.
