Stained glass is an art of gesture and light, a subtle language made of transparency, material, and color. Heir to a centuries-old tradition, it continues today to inspire architects, artisans, and artists who seek to bring to life sensitive projects, blending heritage and contemporary creation.
During this immersive five-day training course, master glassmaker Bryce Bianconi teaches the technical and aesthetic foundations of his craft, combining artisanal rigor with freedom of interpretation. Trained under master glassmakers in Chartres and Nancy, he has been practicing for over 20 years, with an approach that is both faithful to tradition and open to experimentation.
Throughout the training, the emphasis is placed on precision of gesture, reading light, and understanding materials. For Bryce Bianconi, "stained glass is not just a decoration: it influences space, volumes, and the atmosphere of a place. It reveals what light can say."
At the end of the training, the intern will be able to:

Master glassmaker and founder of Studio Vitrail Bianconi
A passionate master glassmaker and founder of Studio Vitrail Bianconi, Bryce Bianconi perpetuates an exceptional craft, where ancestral know-how and contemporary creation meet. For over 20 years, he has worked in Paris and the Île-de-France region to preserve the beauty of glass heritage, while reinventing this art through modern and custom-made compositions.
With his team, Bryce devotes a large part of his work to the maintenance and restoration of antique stained glass windows, whether in religious buildings, heritage buildings, or private interiors. Each delicate and historically rich work is meticulously cared for, respecting traditional techniques: glass painting, replacement of lead lines, installation of double glazing, etc. The work is tailored to the individual needs of the client, carried out either on-site using the repiquage technique or in the workshop, to ensure a complete and lasting restoration.
But Studio Vitrail Bianconi doesn't limit itself to conservation: it reinvents stained glass as a living art, creating contemporary works that play on opacity, transparency, materials, and colors. Bryce is particularly fond of geometric designs and subtle harmonies of refined hues, designed in close collaboration with architects and interior designers. For him, stained glass is above all a dialogue between light and space, enhancing volumes and transforming the interior ambiance.
True to the values of authenticity, nobility and precision, Bryce and his team are always responsive and enthusiastic, ready to take on the most demanding projects with recognized professionalism, whether for individuals or businesses.
