Meet the Maker
Hello and welcome! I'm Ailsa, the creative mind behind Thomas Critchlow Art Glass.
Decades ago, I found inspiration in my grandfather's stained glass suncatchers, beautifully crafted to dance with sunlight. The memories of my grandmother's joy and the magical colors inspired me to carry on his legacy.
Crafting Timeless Beauty:
In my studio, I breathe life into patterns, carefully selecting each glass piece to preserve timeless beauty. Using a blend of the traditional lead came method and the Tiffany-style copper foil technique, every piece becomes a testament to beauty and passion. Meticulously soldered, cleaned, patina-finished, and polished by hand, each artwork is packaged with care, ready to bring magic into your space.
My Journey:
With the support of my husband and children, I retired from a long career in Nursing to start a stained glass studio! More than a business, my studio is a celebration of tradition, creativity, and the enduring allure of stained glass. What began as a hobby has evolved into a second career... sharing the beauty of stained glass with the world.
Craftsmanship with a Modern Twist:
Every piece is a labor of love, crafted with skill and care. I prioritize high-quality materials, often choosing USA-made glass and supplies when available. Adorned with intricate copper wire details or left to let the glass speak for itself, the results are stunning ornaments and artworks that seamlessly blend tradition with innovation.
My Mission:
Bringing the magic of stained glass into your daily life is my mission. Be it a captivating window panel, a custom-made ornament, or a unique piece of art, I aim to enrich your space with the elegance and color that only stained glass can provide.
A Celebration of Art and History:
Whether you're an experienced collector or discovering stained glass for the first time, explore my collection and uncover the beauty within each piece. Thank you for considering Thomas Critchlow Art Glass for your artistic journey.
Warmest regards,
Ailsa Thomas-Getts

How it’s Made
Using a meticulously hand-drawn template, I carefully trace the intricate design onto sheets of glass.
Each piece undergoes precise hand-cutting and meticulous smoothing to eliminate any sharp edges.
Following a visit to the washstand for the removal of oil and debris, the glass is left to dry, preparing it for the next steps.
Copper foil tape is then carefully applied to the edges and burnished for optimal adhesion.
Returning to the workstation, the piece undergoes the intricate processes of soldering and the application of fine details.
After a second visit to the washstand, a rich dark patina is applied if needed, transforming the metals from silver to a luxurious, deep brown.
The piece receives a final wash before being left to dry completely.
Once dry, your artwork is meticulously buffed to a gentle shine before being thoughtfully packed and shipped to you!

Shop Policies
Variations:
The colors and patterns displayed on your screen are representative of the art you will receive.
Each item is handmade and crafted with care and attention to detail. The artisanal nature means that slight variations in size, color, and design naturally occur. These nuances contribute to the uniqueness of each piece, ensuring that no two items are exactly alike. Celebrate these subtle differences as a testament to the authenticity and craftsmanship of your new handmade products. Embrace the unique character of each piece.
Caring for Your Stained Glass:
To clean your glass, use a soft cloth and wipe gently. If using a cleaner, ensure it is non-ammonia and non-abrasive, and use a soft cloth for gentle wiping. A drop or two of mild dish soap works well.
Avoid vinegar, ammonia (common in many glass cleaners), and acid-based cleansers, as these can harm the came and solder that hold the piece together. Abrasive materials may remove or scratch the patina on the metal.
For hanging, we recommend using a picture hanger, nail, or cup hook at the top of your window sill. Please refrain from using suction cups, as they are not reliable and may fail.
When storing, wrap the piece in tissue paper and then padding material/box, as bubble wrap and plastics can potentially damage the came and solder.
