Copying original glass designs

Back To Past Works Home

original leaded glass fanlightMany times throughout the year we get requests from customers wanting to have new glass created based on an original design in their home. One of our trade clients recently asked us to create this basic leaded fanlight design in a modern day double glazed unit and it had to look as old and traditional as possible.

We explained to the client that there are several ways in which we could create a new piece of glass and make it look old and traditional using our modern materials and the best way forward would be to make one sample piece for the client to view. We visited the house as it was local to the studio and we took this photo to work with. As the whole of the design is created using obscure glass, we used 3 different types of textures from this page and all of the joints in the leadwork were soldered and aged Option 4.

The client viewed the sample copy of their design and absolutely loved it. The full order was then placed for 5 bay window fanlights to be supplied to our trade client and below is the completed window with the glass created and supplied by the Leadbitter Glass studio.
