Tillery Innovations Stained Glass Tools

Tools, A Cut Above

Our Story

Tillery Innovations was born from a simple frustration: the flood of cheap, low-quality stained glass tools being sold online. We’re a third-generation stained glass studio based in the United States, and we know what real tools should feel like.

So, we took our decades of hands-on experience and poured it into our own line of tools — designed in the studio, tested in real projects, and offered at affordable prices. We want to bring the love of stained glass to our customers — not the frustration.

Our Mission

We manufacture stained glass tools that are well made but still affordable, thoughtfully designed for beginners and hobbyists alike. Whether you're just starting your stained glass journey or crafting your tenth leaded panel, we’re here to support your creativity — with tools that actually work.

What Makes Us Different

The difference is in the details: the correct spring rate in our pliers, a slightly larger carbide cutting wheel for better visibility, and our signature cushioned Tillery Teal handles for comfort and control.

Every product we offer is used in our professional stained glass studio — and by thousands of customers across the country. And yes, we still get excited when someone buys their first set of pliers.

Who We Help

Thousands of DIYers, mosaic artists, students, and curious crafters have used our kits to start their stained glass journey. We’re proud to support local makers, teachers, and creatives around the world — and we're thrilled to be part of your story too.
