How do hang my Piece?
I recommend using a screw or nail to hang your piece. DO NOT use window suction cups!!! They tend to fall and can be extremely unreliable. Don’t risk it! Pieces can be hung with Jack chain or other stable and sturdy cable material.

How do I care for my stained glass piece?
I do my best to thoroughly prepare all artwork for its life in its new home. If you feel as though you need to clean your piece you can use a damp cloth with soap and lukewarm water. As your piece ages you may notice some oxidization on the metal (looks like white buildup over the solder line). This is completely normal! When this happens, I like to use a small amount of wax (car wax is fine) to help. Just apply a small amount and buff the solder lines until they appear shiny and new!
Avoid using harsh chemicals on your class like windex or bleach.

Isnt there lead in stained glass?!
Yes, there is lead in stained glass, but the lead in stained glass is dangerous only if ingested or inhaled via dust. If you are handling your piece, be sure to thoroughly wash your hands after. Some things you can do to help mitigate possible danger are keeping your stained glass dusted, clean and out of reach of children and pets.
