Contemporary Faceted Stained Glass

Faceted Windows

For 60 years Willet Hauser faceted glass creations have been enhancing buildings and public spaces.

Ancillae-Assumpta Catholic Academy Chapel

New York Hall of Science, Queens, New York

An entire 9 story building constructed of faceted stained glass panels for the 1964 Worlds Fair.

The faceted glass window (or panel) consists of thick chunks of glass & an epoxy matrix that form the design in a mosaic fashion.

What is Faceted Glass?Some general information about the medium

The glass provides the color and the epoxy provides the line & negative space between the positive colored areas.

The 1” thick glass is manufactured in slabs called “dalles” that measure 8” x 12”.

Faceted Windows

For 50 years Willet Hauser faceted glass creations have been enhancing buildings and public spaces.

Faceted glass is often used to create walls of glass in a monumental setting.

Peachtree United Methodist Church, Atlanta

Peachtree United Methodist Church

Atlanta, Georgia

Willet Hauser designed, fabricated and installed 41 large windows for this new building.

A traditionally designed building with windows that are at the same time classical and contemporary.

The church wanted the overall style of the windows to be contemporary with a more traditionally styling of the figures in the nave windows.

The background is mostly unpainted leaded glass with smooth and textured glasses for contrast.
