Mackintosh
Willow Tea Rooms Door Glass - order yours today!
Charles
Rennie Mackintosh designed every aspect of the famous Glasgow Willow
Tea Rooms in the early 20th century. Mackintosh
created a lot of leaded and stained glass designs for the
Tea Rooms
and the image below is our interpretation
of the Willow Tea Rooms Mackintosh door glass. The original door
glass
took pride
of place at the entrance to the Willow Tea Rooms - "Room de
Luxe" in 1903 but unfortunately the glass can now only be
viewed in a local museum.
The Leadbitter Glass studio can create the glass design below for your split
glazed
doors
and the glass pattern can also be altered to suit other styles of doors
and windows. As the design is very intricate, the majority of the design would
be created using 3mm lead
with a small amount of 4.5mm lead used for other areas of the pattern. Most of
this Mackintosh glass design would be clear glass (unless frosted glass is chosen)
with
white,
grey
and
purple coloured areas in some places.
Other colours and frosts can be chosen but the below image is the closest likeness
of the original door.
We recently received an order for 2 large sliding door glass panels based on this design
but the client wanted the design to be etched into the glass instead of a leaded design. The client has actually had tea in the famous Willow Tea rooms and admired the original door glass design during their visit. You can view the 'CGI proof' created for the client showing how their etched glass Willow Tea Rooms doors will look here
