Fern Glass began more than ten years ago from a small workshop in the family home of founding artist June Mackenzie, who originally worked with lead to create stained glass window panels.

A hundred years ago such panels were often seen, however in this modern age, due to energy saving double-glazing being employed in most homes, single-glazed leaded panels are no longer practical.

With this in mind, June set out to adapt stained glass window ornamentation to the requirements of our age, creating smaller, self-contained glass designs using the Tiffany method of copper-foiling and solder. These pieces were designed to hang in any window to provide the appearance of genuine stained glass without the permanence and impracticalities involved in leaded window panels.

These new hangings were an instant success, and as demand for them grew, Fern Glass expanded to include a team of talented artists, craft-workers, and skilled glass cutters in order to increase productivity and satisfy the increasing world-wide consumer-base we now attract.

Though business has grown over our ten year history, here at Fern Glass our passion for design and quality remains the same. Every single item we produce is an original design by our founding artist, June Mackenzie, and this personal element is retained throughout production, as each piece is individually hand-crafted by the Fern Glass team in our Scottish studio.

The imaginative and painstaking nature of our designs adds a luxurious touch, at very affordable prices, to the ever-changing phases of interior design. By employing an old method to suit a modern time, we are certain our designs will endure long into the future.
