We consider Quality, Design and

Colour to be Paramount

Welcome to Spirit of Glass

Here at Spirit of Glass with over 40 years of experience and several awards under her belt, Kirsten considers design, colour and texture to be paramount. Whether it’s Contemporary, Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Federation, Australiana, a picturesque scene, Classic or Bold, it is her desire to make sure your Window and/or Art Work is:

Pleasing to the eye
Highlighted in an aesthetic way, using colour, lines and light
Offers either a view through to your garden or diffuses the view from outside

Coming from an arts background Kirsten understand blending to the style of house or creating a masterpiece to enhance your surroundings.

All work is carried out with care and the highest skill, from years of experience and training. Only quality work is offered and carried out, even on the most basic jobs.

All repairs are offered with use of original replacements where available keeping the integrity of the past.

Price and service is paramount as is understanding budget and need of efficiency, though good work takes time. A one off master piece is well worth the time and cost.

Note: Leadlight and Stained Glass not only add aesthetics to your home, but lift the value.

Our Client Review

I have had many classes at Spirit of Glass from the amazing Kirsten Laken. In a way that should tell you everything. Kirsten is a terrific teacher and mentor. She has wonderful attributes , it starts with a friendly hello, classes start on time and the studio is neat clean and organised. She is great at listening to ideas and helping to bring them to fruition. She is open to new and crazy suggestions for artwork. She also stars at helping with design or making suggestions to enhance your dream artwork. I have had the opportunity to try leadlight, stain glass painting, slumping/ fusing and combinations of the above. Without her formidable skills and talents I could never manage to develop my ideas and produce them as actual artworks, they would remain dreams. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Kirsten has done an amazing restoration job on my stain glass panel. We worked closely together to achieve an excellent outcome. Kirsten listened carefully to what I wanted and willingly took on board these ideas. She was incredibly creative and had an eye for detail and colour. She was also very flexible with her time. I have already recommended her to my friends! You have brought beauty into my home.
Well done Kirsten and thank you so much.

Kirsten (Spirit of Glass) has been creating our Green Gown Award Australasia trophies for 10 years now. When we originally contacted her to create a trophy that was both beautiful and made from recycled materials to match the sustainability ethos of our awards, Kirsten was delighted to put something together for us. A decade later our award recipients still love receiving these stunning glass trophies!
