« Through light, color enters our living space, which becomes unique and magical. »

About

Originally from Martigny, Chantal Wessels, a radiology technician by training, goes from “black and white” transparency to color. After having followed the Swiss school of stained glass and creation, she opened her workshop Mise en Verre in 2006 in Savièse in Valais. In 2013, he had the opportunity to restore the 41 stained glass windows by Ernest Biéler in the parish church of his town.

« The glass painting changes over the hours, days, seasons and time and offers us a poetry of colors. »

The Mise en Verre workshop gives you the benefit of personalized advice to assist you in the choice and design of your project as well as meticulous workmanship. All stained glass techniques are carried out there: traditional lead stained glass, painting, fusion, engraving.
