Custom transom stained glass designs.

We recently came across a page on the fabulous social site Houzz featuring terrific stained glass transom windows. Some (most) were above doors, which is the main place you will find transom windows. Others were just lone transoms hanging out near the ceiling of a room. With transom stained glass, Dallas homeowners can turn these frequently overlooked windows into stunning focal accent points in the room, and still let them fulfill their primary purpose: to let light into the space.

Do you have any transom windows in your Dallas home? If you aren’t familiar with the term, these are windows that sit atop a door, atop another window, or up near the ceiling as previously mentioned. It’s unusual to cover them with shades or curtains, but it’s becoming more and more common to enhance them with stained glass.

When it comes to transom stained glass, Dallas residents always want custom designs that suit their individual tastes. And that’s just fine with us, because at Stained Glass Dallas, every single piece of stained glass we build is custom designed. It’s hand crafted, using local artisans and the highest quality materials. And its expertly installed into your windows, using the existing glass as a barrier to protect the new stained glass from the elements.

Let’s talk about the number one place to add transom stained glass in Dallas homes: above the front door in your home’s entryway. Your transom window might be a rectangle shape, a half-moon shape, we’ve even seen diamond shaped transoms. But whatever the shape or size, you won’t believe the pop of style and uniqueness that little window can give your entryway once it’s been transformed with custom transom stained glass.

Now let’s talk custom stained glass style. The very word custom implies that it’s made to order, made to your specifications. And with stained glass, you have an awful lot of choice. Do you love antique designs? Abstract designs? Geometrics? Or how about the beautiful and iconic Glasgow Rose design, made famous by Scottish architect and stained glass designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh? A pop of red, surrounded by clear or frosted glass in your front transom window? Can you imagine it?

Many of our clients prefer to do not just the transom, but all the glass in their entryway, and even include a stained glass insert into the front door. This can add a tremendous amount of light into a home’s entryway. But honestly, with transom stained glass, Dallas entryways are transformed. If you have transoms in the living room, dining room, even in the bathroom, why leave them plain?

For the most beautiful transom stained glass, Dallas or any of the outlying towns, cities, and suburbs, please contact Stained Glass Dallas today.
