CONTEMPORARY WINDOWS

These can be:

Leaded Lights are windows made up from individually cut and shaped pieces of clear or coloured glass held together with lead cames, cemented to the glass. The selection of glass available is quite staggering from the more mundane to the highly individual.

So called 'Tiffany windows' are named after the famous American, Louis Comfort Tiffany. It was he who created the method of construction using sticky backed thin copper foil to surround each piece of glass. If you'd like to see some of the Master's work there is an online gallery at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. This shows a small selection of Louis Comfort Tiffany's windows and gives brief information about each.

This is a selection of the windows that we have made. We add to the selection all the time, though it tends to be the ones we like the most that you’ll find there. We can create windows to virtually any design, so don't think it's not possible, it more than likely is.

Several of the windows here have been made up as Triple Glazed Units (set inside a sealed Double Glazed Unit), for example:

Castle of Brecon Kingfishers
Winterbourne Matisse
Cuckmere Haven
Armorial Bearings
Whitstable Chapel
Cockerel Pair
Japanese Cranes
Butterflies & Hands
Circular Kingfisher
