A new stained glass galleon for Glasgow's West End, in keeping with the areas rich association with Glasgow maritime history. The design and colours used were inspired by the Stephen Adam windows in the local Tennants Bar, Byres Road and by a Robert Burns window for Stephen Adam & Sons window in Kelvinside, Glasgow (1890's). This home was recently converted back into a private residence after being used by Hyndland Parish Church and is now one of Glasgow most expensive properties....



A victorian style stained glass window to match the existing windows for this home. The panel on the left was built in 1900, the panel on the right 2005. The colours and textures of the glass match as close as possible. The panel is constructed in the same manner as the original and with secondary glazing of laminated glass to protect and add saftey to the home the new window will last at least 150 years before it may need some repair to the lead.

 

The design for the stained glass fanlight used architectural details from the clients house and garden. Fleur de lis, Stars and Scrolls.



The panel on the right incorporates a tile design from the stairwell "wally close" of this clients tenement home.
