We’ve been extremely busy here at Coriander Stained Glass over the past month and we have many wonderful projects to share with you.  Spring seems to finally have arrived and nothing catches the sun light in your home as beautifully as a stained glass window.

Here are a couple of recent projects we’ve finished that involve hand painted glass.

This first piece was for a stairway window in Claygate, Surrey.  Stairway windows can make a fantastic feature point and really brighten up an otherwise overlooked part of your home.

This window has features typical of the Victorian era, with the ruby red border and geometric background in traditional pale shades.  The central roundel feature of the sun has been finished with hand painted glass to add character and charm to the sun.

The central feature adds an additional focal point as you walk up the stairway and really finishes off the piece.

The next piece we’d like to share with you today is a fantastic example of how stained glass can really transform your home.  This Victorian piece was fitted in a home in Tooting.

Here you can see the front entrance as it was prior to fitting.

The glass is removed and the frame made ready for the new stained glass.

The central features of this window were lovingly hand painted and kilned by our in house artist, Margaret.

The finished piece really brightens up the entrance way to this home.

The beautiful hand painted birds are a lovely addition to this piece, and the overall effect is quite striking.

If you’ve an idea for your own home, why not take a look at our stained glass portfolio to give you more ideas for a stained glass window of your own.

That’s it for today from us here at Coriander Stained Glass, but check back later this week for more of our latest projects.  You can also keep up to date with our latest news on Facebook and Twitter.
