Stained Glass Artisan Soldering Lead Came in Bursa

First light of late summer strikes the workshop floor, where ground fog pools beneath the workbench. A stained-glass artisan sits low, hands steady as they guide a soldering iron along the lead came holding colorful glass fragments. The molten metal glows against the cool gray veins of the lead. Rough wooden tools rest beside the glass pieces, worn smooth by years of use. Dust motes hang in the beam of sunrise, catching the glow of the hot tip. One drop of solder rests on the end of the iron, poised to join the glass segments.
