A Legacy in Glass
In a town where craftsmanship meets curation, McMow Art Glass has quietly become one of Palm Beach’s best-kept design secrets. Based in Lake Worth Beach, this family-run studio has been shaping the island’s visual language for decades, one pane, panel, and installation at a time.
Palm Beach Presence
Their work is woven into some of the town’s most recognizable spaces. Step inside La Goulue, the island’s beloved French brasserie, and you’ll find McMow’s artistry anchoring the room. Elegant and entirely custom. Wander through a private residence off El Bravo or an intimate gallery near Royal Poinciana, and their presence is just as unmistakable. McMow is not just a vendor. They are collaborators and artists with a refined sense of proportion, light, and permanence.
Craftsmanship with Reach
What began nearly 50 years ago as a stained glass workshop has grown into one of Florida’s leading architectural glass studios. McMow works across eras, styles, and spaces—from historic Mediterranean estates to sleek, contemporary builds, and from private residences to public-facing landmarks. Their materials shift to meet each project, whether fused, etched, leaded, or beveled, but the craftsmanship remains exact.
Their work appears throughout South Florida’s built environment, in chapels, galleries, boutique storefronts, and other spaces where design is part of the experience. Each installation is composed with care, balancing material and light in ways that feel both structural and expressive. McMow’s glass does not just complement a space. It defines it.
Studio, Legacy, and Recognition
Now under the direction of Monique McMow and John Runnels, the studio continues to evolve while remaining grounded in its original ethos. Their Lake Worth Beach location serves as both a working studio and a creative hub, home to a showroom, gallery, and educational programming that invites both collaboration and community.
Whether it is a grand entryway or a quiet decorative moment, McMow’s glass reflects the tone of Palm Beach. Intentional. Elevated. Built to last. In a well-earned moment of recognition, McMow was recently featured in Florida Weekly for their lasting impact on Palm Beach’s design and cultural landscape—a fitting spotlight for a studio that continues to shape the view, one composition at a time.
This is the glass that holds the light of Palm Beach.
