Materials and technique
Our sacred mosaics are made by hand from the highest quality materials: marble, natural stone, granite, travertine, onyx, Venetian glass, Murano glass, Italian smalti, gold and silver smalti, ceramics, porcelain, enamel, and mirrored and iridescent materials. We have over 3000 shades of glass and smalti, allowing faithful reproduction of every detail – from subtle skin tones to the rich colors of liturgical vestments. We use classic mosaic techniques: opus tessellatum, opus vermiculatum and contemporary techniques, combining tradition with a modern approach to sacred art.
The sacred mosaic process
Creating a sacred mosaic in our studio involves five stages: a visit to the church and consultation with the parish, an individual design tailored to the architecture and character of the temple, hand-made execution of the mosaic by a team of experienced mosaic artists, professional transport and installation in the church. At every stage we send photos and video materials from the creation process, ensuring full transparency. We cooperate with architects, sacred interior designers, monument conservators and representatives of parishes and dioceses.
Durability and quality of the mosaic
A sacred mosaic is an investment for generations. Our mosaics are resistant to weather conditions – frost-resistant, waterproof, UV-resistant. The colors do not fade for decades, and the mosaic retains its beauty for over 100 years. Mosaics on church facades are not afraid of rain, snow or sun. Interior mosaics in altars, on walls and vaults become the focal point of the temple, emphasizing its spiritual character and sacred atmosphere.
Sacred mosaic to order
Every sacred mosaic project is individual – from classic mosaic images inspired by Byzantine and Ravenna art, through realistic depictions in Renaissance and Baroque style, to modern and contemporary interpretations of sacred themes. We create mosaics for newly built churches, renovated and modernized temples, as well as gifts, votive offerings and jubilee donations. We also make mosaics for monasteries, seminaries, religious houses, cemeteries, columbaria, cemetery chapels and roadside shrines.

Frequently asked questions
How can I find out the price of a sacred mosaic?
For a quote we need: a sketch or photo of the mosaic design, exact dimensions and a photo of the installation site in the church.
What does the cost of a mosaic depend on?
The price of a sacred mosaic depends on the size, level of complexity, number of details, materials and installation.
How long does it take to make a church mosaic?
The lead time depends on the project. A mosaic measuring 100 × 300 cm takes about 1.5–3 months (including installation).
How durable is a sacred mosaic?
The mosaic is very durable – 100 years and more. It does not fade or change color even on the outside of a church.
Is a mosaic suitable for a church facade?
Yes. We make facade mosaics resistant to frost, rain, snow and UV radiation.
Can a mosaic be made from an individual sketch?
Yes, of course. Most of our projects are based on individual designs and sketches.
