Ready to boggle your mind? The new showroom of Barron Mirror Glass & Door encourages possibility thinking with all the many displays and choices for home renovators.

“This year, in January, we moved our showroom to Chesterfield, at 125 Chesterfield Industrial Boulevard, and it is drop-dead gorgeous. We were the largest showroom in St. Louis before, and now we’re twice as big. We have huge displays that give customers lots of ideas of what they can do in their homes,” says Tom Barron, owner, who designs most of the custom pieces they produce.

“Everything here is either hot, sharp or dirty,” jokes Mike Kinnikin, describing his 12,000-square-foot metalwork shop, Eureka Forge. Mike, along with 11 other guys, spend their days at the shop creating one-of-a-kind artworks out of steel, bronze, copper, brass, aluminum and other metals. “My dad started this business, and I learned from him. I grew up with it,” Mike says.

Lining the storefront on Euclid Avenue in the Central West End are samples portraying flowers, females and other traditional images through the colorful stained glass work. Look above and you’ll find Tiffany-style lamps hanging all around. You can also observe craftsman in the midst of making the stained glass right in the store.
