Leaded lights, Victoria, Westminster, SW1

There are amongst a set of 7 new leaded glass panels fitted in a newly refurbished apartment in Central London. We worked closely with the client, who was concerned to respect the nature of the building, on the patterns and choice of the glass, and with the contractors who were carrying out the re-modelling.

All the glass is uncoloured, the borders are in Waterglass and the octagons in Crystal Ice, both from Spectrum and the squares, etc in Corella from Wissmach

Fitted in December 2011.

Blackheath Stained glass

Pair of new leaded door panels using a mixture of English Muffle Glass and Sahara/Corella, with a red border with outer uncoloured border in Water Glass from Spectrum.  Client decided against a traditional painted centre, in favour of a leaded motif based on some of the stucco work in this Edwardian house in Blackheath, SE3.  Fitted in June 2010

Leaded top light - Honor Oak, SE23

To complement the clients' new lighting, this sea/sky panel using mainly Corella and Spectrum Waterglass, with a deliberate mixture of lead widths replaced a plain glass panel above the front door. The old glass was removed and a double glazed sealed unit installed in the opening. The new leaded panel was then fitted next to this, and secured with new beading.

Fitted January 2010.

Blackheath Leaded Glass Panels

This pair of panels was fitted in time for Christmas 2009, for a client for whom we had worked previously. We like the double border, which gives good definition to the panels, which are made mainly in the pastel tints of English Muffle glass.  Waterglass is sued for the amber petals of the central flowers.

Croydon stained glass

Installed August 2009. Here we made a new centre panel - with the 2 doves, and several new border pieces. Previous the original leaded panels had been replaced with plain glass.

These 3 views - from the inside looking out, from the outside, and pre-installation against a difusing background, show just how variable the appearance of the same glass is under different conditions of light.










We particulaly like the aquamarine 'waterglass' in the centre, which is streaked with blue.
