Lets Create!
Whether you are a glass enthusiast, hobbyist, beginner, novice or professional, the Lizano’s can relate.
Lizano’s Glass Haus, Inc. is a family run studio, the trio consists of a husband, wife and daughter team; Al, Liliana and Paulette Lizano.
Al and Liliana are natives of San Jose, Costa Rica and Tela, Honduras respectively. They have been living in the New Orleans area for over 50 years, so they’re official transplants. Paulette was made in Germany while Al served in the United States Army but born and raised in New Orleans. (hence the reason we spell house in German)
The love of stained and art glass began about thirty plus years ago when the married couple enrolled in a stained glass class for beginners. From that time, it has developed into a full time passionate career. The couple to advantage of national stained glass conventions and conferences taking additional courses taught by some of the leading professionals in the art glass industry. After numerous studies in the art, they formed a private partnership, working on commission pieces for private homes and individuals. In 1995, moving from the backyard workshop, Lizano’s Glass Haus, Inc. was formed and moved into the public sector.
Liliana’s artistic talents have led her to a fascinating blend with the medium of glass. Al’s background in engineering has helped the studio fabricate magnificent works of art. Their daughter Paulette, utilizes her architecture degree from LSU, combined with innate artistic talent, to bring a contemporary vision to the studio. Paulette’s eye for space and color has been an asset to assist designers, contractors and homebuilders. Besides the traditional stained glass techniques, Paulette works with “warm” glass in the form of fusing and slumping in glass kilns.
