road, but using one of our permanent flashed glass number, where the numerals
aren't simply painted onto the surface of the glass. There are other examples of this type of
stained glass numbers and lettering. The
coloured glass is mostly English Muffle.</div>

centre with a couple of cracked pieces.
It was otherwise in fair condition, it had been installed such that
there was a risk of further damage (to the panel and the surrounding parts of
the door) if it had been removed for repair.
We were able to effect some in-situ patching in of replacement pieces - this is not always possible, and its more often the case that the panel needs to be removed for restoration.</span><br />

This panel had begun to come loose and a couple of pieces
were cracked. It was removed, the
opening secured and the panel rebuilt with new lead, replacing the broken
glass. An 8mm diameter steel support bar
is fitted into the frame, and the panel tied to this with copper wires to
provide support – this was missing from the original installation.<o:p></o:p></div>

We made a new panel to a slight modification of the original design. The hammered glass used in the original and the top panel hasn't been made for some years, but the material we used here, although not the same, does work quite well in blending with the original in the top.<br />

<div>
Leaded glass windows are made waterproof and rigid by means of the 'cement' - a black putty-like compound that is forced between the glass and the lead. For consistency and reliability we always used a commercial products, and not a 'home brewed' recipe or regular putty that has been coloured - we consider that these cheaper alternatives to 'the real thing' as being inferior.<br />

There are minor producers, sometimes using soft un-alloyed lead which we find less suitable. We have a preference for the lead from Germany. This shows 6mm wide lead with a ‘half round’ profile, as well as 12 and 16mm, which is generally used at the borders. We also use 5, 8 and 10mm. <br />

tin. Before the joints are made by
melting the solder onto and into them, the lead is rubbed with tallow – in the
form of (wickless) ‘candles’ (essentially beef fat – stearic acid) which acts
as a flux, enabling the molten solder to flow and coat and fill the lead, thus
making the joint. The solder melts at
around 200 degrees C.</div>

<div>
Leaded lights and stained glass windows have a tendency to 'bow' and this needs to be offset by various supporting devices. They are often fitted with support bars, usually aligned with the lead lines so they are less conspicuous. It is also possible to introduce thin steel strips next to the 'heart' of the lead, edge-wise to the glass, and sometimes pieced through intersecting pieces of lead. This internal reinforcement works best when the lead is wider - 8mm minimum or better still 10.</div>

panels may be supported, strengthened and made more durable by use of support
bars, set into the frame on the inside and secured to the panels by means of
copper tie-wires soldered to the panel.
The copper tarnishes with time, although it may be painted. The chemistry between the steel of the bar,
the copper and the lead does mean that over time the bars will begin to develop
a coating of rust. This is a very
traditional method of adding support.</div>

<b>Retaining a leaded panel with putty<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
This shows how leaded glass panels fitted into frames that
will then be sealed with putty are retained.
(This is in contrast to panel retained with timber beading) Putty alone is insufficient to hold the panel
in the frame, because of the weight. So
the traditional way to hold it in is with tacks, hammered in such that the head
just depresses into the border lead.
Generally we use 16mm steel tacks.
In older work the tacks are often found to be in copper or maybe bronze,
but these are very hard to come by. Once
tacked in, a filet of putty is applied to cover and seal the gap, much as for
normal single glazing in wooden frames.<o:p></o:p></div>

in 5 tints of English Muffle glass with 100mm amber glass roundels – the glass
echoes the rest of the windows in the house. The larger of these panels is 2.5m
tall. They are fitted behind double
glazed units pre-installed by the main contractors. The thicker horizontal lines are from support
bars, installed where the sections join – they are too big to be made in one
piece (the smaller window is in 2 pieces and the larger in 3). In addition to the bars there are internal
supports, set between the edge of the glass and the lead.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Due in some part to deterioration in the door, one of the existing stained
glass panels had begun to come apart - these panels were in fact
not original – having been copied – they used rather heavy, wide lead, and unsympathetic
glass, and had been fitted with no supporting bars. Our client commissioned a new door, and we
made 2 new panels shown here, that, informed by the glass in the neighbouring houses, we all
felt were more in keeping with the lost originals.<o:p></o:p></div>

previous house, we were pleased to be invited back to do the same for their new
house! They were very clear they wanted
to reproduce the originals – which were made with ‘reeded’ glass – but with
narrower reeds – this is now longer available, so we used 12mm, with pale
Muffle glass for the coloured border and motif.
The panels are fitted with 8mm diameter support bars. Our client said <i>'<o:p></o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">I stop in my tracks every time I come down the
stairs to admire the front door. So thank you again'</span></i></div>
