Dave Griffin - Stained Glass Artist based in Derbyshire
Design, making, restoration and repair of stained glass
Dave Griffin is a stained glass artist based in the Peak District in Derbyshire, but working both regionally and throughout the UK. This website gives you an introduction to my work as a designer and maker of original commissioned window and door panels which are made using traditional techniques and materials.
Glass is chosen to suit the location and ambient light, so the shade and quality of each piece changes with both the weather and the time of day.
All my work is made with a high degree of artistry and craftsmanship according to the Code of Practice of the British Society of Master Glass Painters.
Panels are designed in full partnership with clients, and have been exhibited nationally. 
Services Provided
Design, making and installation of windows for domestic, ecclesiastical and public settings
Traditional leaded lights
Restoration of windows both in situ and in the workshop
Triple glazing (encapsulation) of new and existing stained glass
Introductory 3-day courses
Commissions
Stained glass commissions are undertaken both locally and nationally. Commissioning a stained glass panel allows you to acquire a unique piece of art which is an expression of your ideas 
Inspiration
My inspiration comes from the beauty of shapes and forms found in nature.

The result is a dynamic abstract window, full of colour and movement and beautifully crafted. It absolutely fitted all expectations of what we had in mind and more! It is simply fabulous, unique …and ours; we are very proud and couldn’t recommend Dave highly enough.
