New stained glass door set Sydenham, London, SE26


New stained glass door set Sydenham, London, SE26
Sydenham stained glass
We copied the original pattern from the neighbour’s door to produce this set of 4 leaded glass panels, the originals having been replaced with plain textured glass at some point.  We did however make some small changes to the original design with the agreement of the client, that we all felt enhanced the
appearance.

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.
Fitted in February 2013

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.

Rebuilt leaded panels - Croydon and Sydenham

Both these panels are one of a pair, the first one from Croydon and the second from Sydenham. They were also both set in the door nearest the opening edge, the lock side - which is always more subject to wear and tear - and whilst their twins remained in fair condition these 2 had suffered, necessitating removal, boarding over the opening, disassembly of the panels and remaking with all new lead, replacing the broken glass with the best match we had.
