  • Our handcrafted stained glass integrates seamlessly into double or triple glazing, meeting modern thermal and acoustic insulation standards while preserving the chromatic brilliance of natural light—ideal for contemporary residences in the Algarve.

  • Beyond traditional stained glass, we create works in fused glass, 3cm-thick glass slabs (cement-jointed), sandblasted panels, and colored laminated glass—innovative solutions for interiors, façades, and sacred environments.

  • With over 45 years of experience, we specialize in the restoration of historic stained glass for churches, cathedrals, and palaces across Europe and Latin America—executed with museum-grade precision and deep respect for artistic heritage.

  • At A Arte dos Vitrais, every stained glass piece emerges from a unique collaboration: from your initial vision to final installation, we use hand-selected glass and century-old techniques to transform light into emotional storytelling.

  • Whether for a cathedral dome or a luxury residence, our stained glass domes master complex geometry—combining traditional leaded glass, cathedral glass, and natural light to create immersive, awe-inspiring visual experiences.
