What is "dalle de verre"?
Dalle de verre is a technique used in stained glass art where large, thick pieces of colored glass, known as slabs, are cut into various shapes and arranged to create a design. Instead of using the traditional lead or copper to hold the pieces together, this method uses concrete or resin. This results in a vibrant and textured design. Dalle de verre is often used in modern architectural projects where it can create impressive visual effects. Its durability and bold, contemporary look make it a popular choice for both interior and exterior projects.
