Attenhofer's Stained Glass Studio

I've been meaning to review this place and I made my stop in over a year ago now! But this place and the people that work here made so much of an impression on me that I never forgot it or them...I was involved in an accidental stained glass incident at my roommates apartment and I was lost when it came to what to do and how I could even go about fixing it.As soon as I stepped in the door at Attenhofers, I was met by the owner and her staff. They were BEYOND helpful. After talking to them, I felt like I had learned a lot about stained glass. And although they did not have the right sized replacement I was looking for, their advice and recommendations saved my behind indefinitely.Thank you all so much!

Attenhofer's is a stained glass studio that has been around for about 50 years. The current owner is Cynthia Courage. It is Cindy that we dealt with. She is an artist in her own right, doing both original art work as well as restoration of older pieces. (See some of the pictures I uploaded for her work.) She also does the mundane work of replacing cracked glass pieces. We have wooden entry doors with leaded beveled glass windows in which over the years several of the glass pieces have been cracked. It was something you could live with as they were small cracks lower on the doors, until this latest cracked piece. It was time to do something. We talked with Cindy and she said we had a choice, as she could come to the house and repair the doors in place or we could save the service fee and bring the doors to her. We decided to bring the doors to her. Each door took a day to repair. Cindy rebraced the windows in each door. They looked great when she was done. We were happy and I felt the price was fair.

The owner is very knowledgeable & ready to help you with whatever you need. I highly recommend this place for finding decorative glass for your historic home!

At a time when handcrafted things are disappearing, the artists at Attenhofer's keep a very high standard of stained glass works. Having moved into a new house, we quickly discovered the very many things the inspection "overlooked". One of them was the mosaic glass front door. The joinery was copper, which had deteriorated so much the whole panel felt flimsy. For a year, we left it, but it only got flimsier. Replacing the door was not an option because of the side and top panels surrounding it. They'd have to be replaced too, at great expense. Then I remembered Attenhofer's. They came to inspect it and said it could be rebuilt. It would be costly, but considering the alternative, that cost was a lot less! It's been over a year since they redid my door. We get so many compliments, especially at Christmas, when the tree lights get multiplied diamond-like to passersby. Today I needed them for something entirely simpler, but three of them dropped everything to help me. Great people. Great artists! Great value! I highly recommend them! Their work is first rate.

Attenhofer's designed and crafted a beautiful stained glass window for the front of our New Orleans home. With my input they helped selecting the colors and look of the window. Their pricing was very reasonable and the workmanship was superb. Thank you!
