Arts and crafts Eure-Et-Loir

Exhibition gallery, shop, bookstore, antique shop, creation workshop or restaurant, this place is entirely dedicated to stained glass. All lovers of this major art, and a fortiori in Chartres, will find at least their happiness. From the old window to the most contemporary stained glass window, let yourself be surprised by their colours, their transparency, their originality… You can go back with a very nice memory, unique.

On the site of Gabriel Loire's workshops, Micheline Loire has a background of about 1 000 old windows made mostly in France between 1850 and 1950. She offers them for sale and is also recognized for the th and th centuries stained glass windows. She purchases and sells her works to individuals in particular. Once again, it is better to call before your passage.

From Gabriel Loire to his grandsons, Hervé and Bruno, by way of course by Jacques, three generations of master glass came to the Loire workshops, passing from one to the other passion, technique and creativity. Epaulés by a dozen companions, the tireless craftsmen of the stained glass windows now carry out important building and restoration sites, both in France and abroad. Each Friday afternoon, they open the doors of their universe of glass and iron, light and transparency, colour and poetry. Their workshops span a thousand square metres and break down into a series of buildings, each dedicated to a specific function: glass tile, colour, glass glass, cut, etc. Above all, don't miss to discover the vitrailleraie, a real open-air museum, which is an ode to the sensitive diaphanéité of the stained glass windows to be discovered without further delay.
