Custom Stained Glass, Beveled Glass and Painted Glass

Welcome

Hi! I’m Mary Ann Celinder, a glass artist who lives and works in Huntington Beach, California. If you've been here before, you'll notice a whole new look to the site. Click on Gallery for thumbnails of categories of work; the new format is user friendly.

Since establishing Celinder's Glass Design in 1976, the focus of my work has been residential leaded glass commissions. I also welcome commercial work, but most of the calls I receive have been for homes. I enjoy working with my clients to create special windows and will listen with care to your needs.

You will see quite a variety of styles and techniques as you browse the photos on this site. The designs can range from contemporary to traditional, from abstract to realistic, with color or no color. It’s important for the window to fit not only the structure, but to also fit the personality of the homeowner. You are considered a key partner during the design process. When we meet, I’ll share my portfolios with you; this site will give you a good sampling of possibilities to lead us in the right direction. You'll find I have lots of techniques up my sleeve and I think you'll see how I enjoy doing different projects.

Look around your home for windows that could use decoration or privacy or if you'd like to frame a view. Windows that have odd shapes are especially conducive to leaded glass since they don’t do well with other window coverings. My work will help that odd shape make sense and become as special as it was meant to be. Leaded glass can be made in any size or shape.

Most of the descriptions will mention the name of my client so you might want to keep a notepad handy. I tend to remember my work by the client’s name; given a name and your sizes, I can ballpark a budget for your project. You can also ask questions on any page to send me an email and I’ll know what you were looking at.

Thanks for visiting! Happy browsing and I hope to work with you soon!
