Let us ask - what could arise if the 'opus' was created under the tutelage of the professional who cooperated with a noted artist?

The architect in charge of the cathedral made a decision to commission it to a German artist Gerhard Richter - one of the most important contemporary artist.

It's a stained glass project - what else could it be?

Glass panel has cracked in the kiln! Again! Once again a failure, waste of time and money. And a disappointed client who's longing to see his brand-new, beautiful glass partition... It's not that bad if it happens at the beginning of the production process, but sometimes it happens in the last phase, during the final firing. There is nothing more frustrating!
