Frequently Asked Questions

Pearsons supplies a broad specialist range, including stained glass, fusible glass, restoration glass, mouth-blown glass, textured glass and brand-led collections. You can explore the main range through Glass, as well as related categories for Fusible Glass and Glass Fusing.

Start with the application first, not the colour. The right choice depends on whether the project is leaded, fused, decorative, restorative or workshop-based. From there, narrow by finish, texture, compatibility and size. A good place to start is Glass or Lead Came if the job is leaded.

If a current digital catalogue is available, this should be linked from here so customers can review the range before ordering. If you still maintain a downloadable catalogue, link it directly from this page.

Fusible glass is intended for kiln work and must be chosen from compatible systems designed to be fired together. Non-fusible glass is generally used for stained glass, leaded work, restoration and decorative applications where kiln compatibility is not the main requirement. See Fusible Glass for compatible kiln-working ranges.

Do not assume different glass types are compatible just because they look similar. For fusing, use glass from the same compatible system and product family wherever possible. If you are unsure, start with the Fusible Glass range or contact our team before ordering.
