Family Crests Austin Become Heirlooms

At Scottish Stained Glass Austin, we can create unique pieces that will complement any style of home.  While we frequently create pieces that are installed in windows throughout homes, the versatility of our process allows us to build more meaningful pieces as well.  Family crests are a beautiful addition to any family, not just every home, and we can work with you to design something that reflects your family in whatever way you feel is most important.

Austin Family Crests

When you invest in a family crest made from stained glass, you’ll be creating a beautiful family heirloom.  If cared for properly, our pieces can last forever, which means you can pass on this emblem of your family through generations.  Most of the family crests that we build are hanging pieces, which will give you the option to move them and hang them in front of windows or on walls over time.

When it comes to actually designing your family crest, our expert team can help.  Whether you know your family crest but aren’t sure how it can translate into stained glass, or if you’re ready to learn more about the history of your name, we’ll take the time to work through this process.  We’ve worked with hundreds of families over our more than 20 years in business to make sure that we get these family crests right.

If your emblem incorporates something that requires more intricacy than our traditional cut glass allows for, we have an option for that.  We work with a talented glass painter who can actually hand paint parts of your crest for a high level of detail.  Many of our crests include a small portion of painted glass as a center point, and since these pieces are hand painted, you’ll have a work of art that is truly one of a kind.

You can use colored glass, clear glass, or a combination of both for your crest.  No matter what type of glass and bevels you choose, family crests look beautiful in front of windows where they can work with natural light and make your glasswork look even lovelier.  Your designer will work with you to find the right colors and styles that truly reflect your family.
