There is little information about this stained glass window company, which grew out of Casa Bordalba, founded by A. Bordalba, except that it had two workshops in Barcelona.
Its production is regarded as Pre-Modernista, as, although the features it employed, such as the wavy lines motif known as the "whiplash", were typical of the Modernista style, its inspiration still came from Romanticism.
Two sets of stained glass windows are known to have been made by this firm, one in a building in Carrer d'Ausiàs Marc, the other in a building at Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes, 684, both in Barcelona, as well as some of the windows in the former Casa Teixidor (1909; Ronda de Sant Pere, 16; now the Arense optician's). It is also known that it worked with J. Busquets on making the stained glass for the items he presented at the 1907 Fine Arts Exhibition
