Since its incorporation on December 17, 1898, the Rambusch Company has remained a small family business producing high-quality, custom-made objects and interiors to suit a wide range of clients. Over a century in existence, the Company has designed and executed more than 45,000 commissions in ecclesiastical arts, church interiors, stained glass, lighting, historic restoration, conservation, replication, art metal, and mosaic.
Rambusch has contributed to the design, creation, and restoration of landmarks, historic institutions, and centers of worship. From restoring the lobby of the Empire State Building, to creating the artwork honoring the first Catholic canonization to take place in the US, to returning the historic glow to Lady Liberty’s torch, our behind-the-scenes work has brought to life some of the most exquisite interiors and monuments in the world.
