A true revival of the old craft of stained glass windows

Delighted with the latest addition to our distillery experience, with a true revival of the old craft of stained glass windows. Working with Bianca was easy as she totally understood our brief. Her interpretation of what we are all about is perfectly reflected in her “New Dawn” piece, proudly displayed in our distillery.

A Stained Glass Window is Something Special

Arts can come in many forms, but a stained glass window is something special. Bianca’s creation of a Kingfisher Bird for me was something wonderful and most unusual.  Hopefully it will last a thousand years and like the stained glass window’s of old – will always be there for others to admire.

Tears sprang into my eyes. It’s so beautiful.

“I asked the glass artist Bianca Divito to create a piece called “perpetual motion” to represent the fact that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It surrounds the front door. It’s so beautiful. When the light comes from outside, it illuminates our home with all these colours. It looks to me like my heart and all of this flowing through it. It sustains us every day.”

I just love it & thank you for it

The window you created at Glencairn is really beautiful and it really enhances the sacred space. Simplicity is one of the values of Cistercian life which is not easily achieved, but you have achieved it in a most profound way in that I know it will enhance people’s lives as they spend time in quiet reflection and prayer there”.

She produced an impressive piece of glass art.

Darndale Belcamp Village Centre CLG commissioned Bianca to design and create a glass art gift for a retired senior member of staff. The company was anxious that the artwork would serve as a fitting memory of the Village Centre. Bianca was very helpful from the beginning, making various suggestions and staying in regular contact throughout the process. She produced an impressive piece of glass art. The recipient was delighted with such a beautiful gift. We highly recommend Bianca and her work.

She absorbed our ideas and created a wonderful piece of stained glass that we never tire of looking at.

Bianca’s design was perfect

We’ve always loved stained glass, but didn’t think we would be able to find a piece to suit a new doorway into a sunroom, we were building. Then we met Bianca which let us explore the idea of having a piece designed specifically for us. The whole process was delightful. Bianca met us, ideas were shared and the design finally settled upon. Bianca’s design was perfect. Neither too traditional or too modern – just right for the space it is in.

Butterflies & Rainbows

After our recent renovation on our home, we comissioned Bianca to create a special piece for our front door in memory of our daughter Mae. Bianca really listened to our brief, was very enthusiastic, personal and an absolute pleasure to work with on this. We absolutely love the finished piece, creating rainbow reflections right through our house, making us smile every day.

Most Original Stained Glass Work

What attracted us to Bianca’s work in the first instance was her use of colour – the range, the texture, and the tonal variety. The abstract free-flowing designs were so impactful and every time one looked at them there was something new. We considered that the technique, style and freshness created the most original stained glass work currently in Ireland. Later when we commissioned some work she was great to interact with, her enthusiasm was infectious, and the end product accurately reflected her creative interpretation of our broad guideline. We feel lucky to have seen her work originally and now to have the daily pleasure of admiring our own Bianca windows several years on

A Truly Living Work of Art

Placing a commission with Bianca Divito is an exciting and creative voyage of discovery.  Bianca starts by getting to know the client, their hopes, and their interests.  She then assesses the context of the proposed work, as well as practical issues such as light and sight lines.  From this she distils a concept, and then creates a design for mutual discussion.  The result is a visionary artistic treatment which is also technically advanced – a truly living work of art which totally fits yet richly enhances its setting.

What Bianca created far exceeded all our expectations

We commissioned Bianca to create a piece of glass art for our home. It was to commemorate some loved ones who’d passed so we were asking the impossible of her. However what she created far exceeded all our expectations. Natural day light is so important to our mental health but when that light is captured and refracted through the coloured lens of your life entering your home, it provides not just coloured light but rather an embrace that envelops your home it is something to behold. Every day the natural light changes with the seasons as the orchestra of light dances across our floor to the rhythm of times past. The colours move in harmony as they take us on a journey.  This is not simply coloured glass reflections rather this is living art that performs a different ballet every day. Thank you Bianca

So Beautiful, So Memorable & So Special

Thank you Bianca for everything you did in making the stained glass window for my wife Marion’s headstone, so beautiful, so memorable and so special. In taking on this project you immediately inspired confidence throughout the duration of the process and this was important for me. Your communication right through from the initial design idea to the completion was excellent and very professional.

I had no idea that the finished stained glass window would be such a masterpiece and this was reflected in my emotions when I saw it for the first time. This project was a very personal memory and tribute to my late wife Marion, and you made it very extra special for me.

Thank you for your professionalism in designing and producing this special stained glass that will be cherished by me and my family forever

Made Entrance Passage Feel Like A Holy Place

The work Bianca did in the chapel of Cherryfield Lodge structured the space and defined its purpose for the first time.  Moving the lovely Evie Hone ‘Gospel’ windows from their frame at the back of the chapel and mounting them at the top of the entrance passage has not only allowed their beauty to be seen and shine out, it has also made the entrance passage feel like an entrance into a holy place, as indeed it is.

The Finished Product Was Excellent

Bianca’s work for us on our refurbishment was just perfect. She listened to us carefully and helped define the scope of work. Her personal standards and professionalism throughout were matched by her enthusiasm, which was extremely high and positively infectious! The finished product was excellent. It was a real pleasure to engage with her and we would not hesitate in recommending her

My Stained Glass Piece Never Fails To Delight

I have always loved stained glass so when I saw Bianca Divito’s work I decided to commission a large stained glass hanging for a window in my new apartment.  The colours and changing light reflections in my stained glass piece vary with the time of day, the sunlight and the seasons, and never fail to delight and add a welcome dimension to my day.  Bianca involves her clients when she is designing and choosing her glass and colours.  I can definitely recommend her work.  She is an artist with talent.

A Rewarding Experience

Collaborating with Bianca Divito and Creative Engagement has been a rewarding experience. Bianca’s thorough preparation and infectious enthusiasm have inspired the students during the workshops here in Rosemont and in her lovely studio in Wexford.  Everyone is very excited about the installation of the beautiful stained glass panel in our new school in Sandyford.

It’s a birthday present that will be treasured for ever

Having received a voucher from family for my birthday, I knew I really wanted a Pillar Lamp and I was excited to ask Bianca to create something special just for me. She is super talented, so easy to work with asking the right questions to narrow down any overflowing ideas I had and the end result …AMAZING! I can’t stop looking at it, day or night. It’s just perfect!
