The workshop in detail

  • 8h
  • 3 to 5 participants
  • 15 years min.
  • Spend a day mastering the art of stained glass! You'll have the opportunity to create a fully customised stained glass mirror.

    At the beginning of the workshop, Margaux will explain the basics of stained glass and demonstrate the tools used. The Tiffany technique is sure to pique your curiosity and creativity.

    Choosing the colours will be an important moment: Margaux will offer you a selection of coloured glasses to choose from.

    Next, she'll guide you through creating a design for your mirror. Glass cutting will require precision and concentration, with clean cuts and precise movements. You'll then use a grinder to refine your glass pieces.

    Once your glass pieces are ready, you'll surround them with a copper strip and solder them with tin to solidify them around the mirror. The colours and textures of the glass pieces will blend perfectly to create a one-of-a-kind mirror.

    Finally, Margaux will add finishing touches to enhance your creation. And to wrap up the day, a drink will be offered so you can relax and socialise.

    By the end of the day, you'll leave with a sparkling stained glass mirror that will add a touch of originality to your decor!

    Meet Margaux

    Stained glass artist

    Margaux began her artistic journey in Belgium at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, where she studied sculpture and received her Master's degree with distinction.

    However, this was just the start of her creative exploration! She quickly delved into the use of light to add an extra dimension to her artistic work.

    Her passion led her to the captivating world of stained glass, where she learned the craft's techniques and secrets from a master stained glass artist before starting her own business.

    Through her stained glass creations, Margaux is able to represent invisible phenomena to the naked eye and make them accessible to everyone. Her work is a celebration of the history and tradition of stained glass, infused with her own modern creativity.

    Her exceptional vision and mastery of the stained glass craft have earned her numerous prestigious awards and exhibitions, including the Boghossian Foundation Prize in 2021 and an exhibition at Villa Empain.

    Super atelier! J'ai adoré! Avant d'arriver au résultat final, il y a plusieurs étapes: le choix des verres, la "mosaïque" sur patron, la découpe, le polissage, la soudure... j'en ai perdu la notion du temps et j'étais extrêmement fière de ma réalisation! Margaux est charmante, très attentive à notre travail et super patiente et bienveillante vis-à-vis de ses "disciples". Un très chouette moment hors du temps!
