Stained glass restoration, Lewisham

This pair of panels (better photos to come) in a window on the stairs was in poor condition, and had been partially renovated a few times in the past (the various kinds of uncoloured glass that have been used over the years are visible, as are some of the ‘strap’ repairs – it was decided to re-use the broken pieces under these, rather than cut new glass, to keep the panel as original as possible..  Our clients were having all their windows replaced by factory made timber windows and were anxious to retain these leaded panels.  We removed them, disassembled, cleaned, and rebuilt with new lead, to a size agreed with the window company, who installed them.
