I really can't say enough good things about Rick and Chris and they work they do at Drehobl Glass. Not only is it a third-generation family business, but the pride they take in their work is remarkable. I commissioned them to help design and create a stained glass of my husband's family crest for his birthday, and it the final result was even more spectacular than I ever could have hoped (you can see the picture of the crest I gave them below). These are true artisans, with no effort spared.

Read moreWe worked with Rick Purro and Drehobl Art Glass on a stained glass window design for our home. Rick was so knowledgeable and the window came out beautifully.

I would definitely recommend Drehobl Art Glass to anyone looking for a beautiful, original piece...
