Janet Rogers is an artist working mainly in stained, leaded and kiln fused glass to commission. Her designs combine traditional craftsmen’s techniques with bold modern designs to produce vibrant works with a contemporary feel.
Born in Gateshead, Janet now lives and has a workshop in Durham where she produces her own fused and etched glass pieces that are often incorporated into leaded stained glass panels. She works full time designing and producing commissions for domestic and commercial projects around the UK.
All glass is individually hand cut making the finished product a totally authentic
piece of art, which is signed and dated.
Janet uses Kokomo and Spectrum glass. Blowpipe
pure solder without flux Arnold and Heaps Lead, 1/4" round came (which is stronger,
less likely to distort) and 1/2" flat for the surround. Larger panels are also strengthened

Finished panels can be sealed in a double glazed unit for use in exterior doors and windows
