Stained Glass Windows and Doors : Antique Gems for Today's Homes, Hardback Book

Stained Glass Windows and Doors : Antique Gems for Today's Homes Hardback

Hardback

Description

Around the turn of the 20th century it became fashionable for homes to include decorative panels of stained glass in their windows and doors.

They ranged from small eyelid windows or transoms over a doorway to massive walls of double-hung windows.

In any size they introduced a warm glow of color to the interiors and an artistic flare to the architecture.

Today stained glass is being rediscovered. Antique windows and doors are sought after by collectors and decorators, and contemporary glass artists are reviving the craft.

This book demonstrates the wide range of glass that is available in the market.

For the artisan it gives a context to their work and provides them with ideas and techniques to expand their repertoire.

Over 500 color pictures show the artistry and craftsmanship of antique windows and doors from England, Europe and the United States, and make this an invaluable resource for designers, architects, home restorers and collectors alike.

Dimensions and information about the historical context and the artists who produced the glass are provided, along with current prices.
