Leaf and Branch Leaded Light
Transom Panel, Surrey 2009
These customers knew they wanted
a branch with some leaves depicted in their leaded
light but were not sure how. We produced a water
colour design and sent that along to them with
some glass samples.
This was a delighful window
to make as it was what we call "Artistic
Cutting". That is, we draw the cutline onto
the window of the workshop. Then carefully choose
the glass as we go. Holding each new piece up
to the next to ensure the overall quality and
harmony of the work. Rich textured streaky glasses
were used for the leaves and a free swirling 'Baroque'
glass for the background. Giving the effect of
swirling wind. Our customers wanted to fit the
windows themselves and save a few quid as it was
pretty straight forward.
And what did our customer think,
''Just a quick email to say a huge thank you from
both of us for all your efforts in creating a
beautiful piece which has far surpassed both of
our expectations! The window looks absolutely
stunning and in the hour that it took me to fit
it at least 6 people walked past and said just
how beautiful the glass looks! We hope you have
a wonderful Christmas and thanks once again for
making our dream come true!''
