Puffin in stained glass

Designed and made by Madeleine, and fitted in a bathroom door.  Using the opaque glasses - in this case the opal/white and the black add to the production time but the unusual effect is, we think, worth it!

The blue/green swirly glass is from Kokomo.  This glass is also used in one of the peacock panels, in the tail, though not very visible here.

Leaded Lights, Wimbledon

One of the larger panels to the left side of this door was damaged, and we removed and rebuilt it replacing the broken pieces of glass.  The panel in the door had become very loose, with a few cracks.  It was made up of glass not sympathetic  to the surrounding pieces, so we copied the pattern and made a new panel with more closely matching glass.

Stained Glass Peacock

Our client rescued doors contacting the original, larger stained glass panels with this peacock from a skip in Bromley.  Here we removed all the old, quite broken surrounding glass and built the bird, which was not too badly damaged, into a new smaller panel, suitable for display.  We have a second peacock, which is more damaged to restore.  The pattern served as inspiration for a completely new panel, fitted in Streatham.

Stained glass door panels – Sydenham, SE26

This pattern, made up in the 4 traditional pastel shades of coloured glass (English Muffle glass) is proving popular.  Here they are fitted behind laminated glass for protection – this is virtually invisible from the inside, but can be seen from the outside, due to the reflections.

For reference the colours in the main hexagon pieces are know as:

Princess Blue (4909)
Regency Gold (4917)
Scottish Heather (4905)
Salem Green (4915)

The smaller squares and triangles are in glass from a different range, as is the red border.

Stained glass repairs – Wandsworth

The right hand panel here had been completely destroyed as the burglar climbed in - there were good locks and an alarm. We removed the few remaining pieces, as well as the other 2 panels, and fitted 6.4 mm laminated safety glass into the openings – although it will break on an impact, the shards are held together by the polymer layer binding the 2 pieces of glass together - it is very difficult to penetrate.  The destroyed panel was replicated using the others as a pattern, and all 3 refitted behind the protective glass panes.  The glass is English Muffle, in clear and Champagne.

Stained glass renovation – Hackney

One of these 2 stained glass panels in Hackney had become damaged, and the other was deteriorated with age.  They were removed; the openings fitted with laminated safety glass to provide protection and security, and then disassembled, and rebuilt replacing the broken pieces, including some of the painted pieces.
