Stained glass door panel – West Norwood, SE25

This panel was a gift from daughter to mother, after the original rather plain leaded door panel came to the end of its life. Our clients, with whom we met several times during the course of the project, identified this pattern themselves, which we then set in an appropriate border. The border and the background (which is in fact a very pale amber) are in English Muffle glass. Fitted in December 2010.

New leaded panels - Forest Hill, SE23

Age and careless decorators had combined to make the originals of these 3 new panels past saving. Their owner removed them and also made a template to enable us to copy the original pattern and make up a new set, which he fitted. Supplied in December 2010

Restored and modified leaded panel

This panel, which had at some point been remade from the original pattern, using different glass, had become damaged. It wasn’t possible to match the uncoloured glass, since its not been made for many years. Rather than use non-matching glass to replace the broken clear pieces, it was decided to replace all the clear glass, and to use a texture that more closely resembled that in the adjacent stained glass door. Fitted in December 2010.

Stained glass repair – West Dulwich, Lambeth, SE21

This door panel had become very unstable with age, and came apart as it was removed from the door, prior to boarding over, although there were almost no broken pieces. It was taken apart, the glass was, and made up into a panel again with new lead, such that it was restored to its condition when originally fitted. Completed in November 2010.

Stained glass repair – West Norwood, SE25

One of these 2 leaded door panels was damaged, necessitating its removal, temporary boarding, and repairs to the panel. In this case it wasn’t necessary to completely disassemble the panel, since its simple design meant the broken pieces could be inserted from the edge. Completed in November 2010.
