Flannery Cronin—Friend of All Studios
Friend of All is a stained glass studio based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, founded by artist and craftswoman Flannery Cronin. Specializing in handcrafted lighting fixtures and custom stained glass panels, the studio is dedicated to transforming living spaces through the interplay of light and color.
Each piece is meticulously crafted by an all-female team of artists, ensuring that every lamp and panel is unique due to the inherent variations in glass. This commitment to individuality means that no two items are exactly alike, offering customers one-of-a-kind additions to their homes.
The studio offers a diverse range of products, including tabletop lamps, hanging fixtures, nightlights, and suncatchers. For those interested in personalized designs, Friend of All provides custom project services, allowing clients to request bespoke pieces tailored to their specific preferences.
Notably, the stained glass pieces at Peace House were commissioned specifically for the space, designed to complement its atmosphere and intention. These works were crafted with careful attention to how light moves through the room, creating shifting images that change throughout the day. Visitors are invited to see for themselves what stories and images the glass holds.
For those wishing to experience their work in person, Friend of All has a showroom located in Philadelphia, where visitors can view their creations and discuss potential projects. Through their dedication to craftsmanship and the transformative power of light and color, Flannery Cronin and Friend of All aim to enhance the ambiance of homes and communal spaces worldwide, bringing warmth and joy to those who encounter their work.
