4 Types Of Decorative Glass Available…

1. Etched Glass to Brighton

Of the many types of glass decorative glass we supply, Etched Glass is one of the most popular requests we receive from the Brighton area. The image above shows what etched glass looks like and basically, it is an obscure background with a clear design. All designs are obviously available in the opposite style – clear background and etched design. We have hundreds of designs in our Etched Glass Gallery and popular styles are Traditional or our Shadows Of Nature.

Other popular etched glass galleries are our Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the House Names and Numbers gallery. We can also create bespoke etched glass panels based on your own photos or drawings. All glass is available single or double glazed. As with all decorative glass orders, a scale proof is created for client approval before the glass is started.

Victorian Etched Glass Door & House Name

Way back in 2013 our studio created a pair of etched glass panels for a Malton style door along with a matching transom panel. The client wanted the house name in the transom panel along with a small amount of detail. We selected a small portion of the design used for the lower door glass and created a drawing. The main title link above will take you to the customers personal page on this site where they got to view options before the glass was made.

2. Overlay Stained Glass to Brighton

The above image shows a great example of an Overlay Stained Glass panel. This type of glass is also one of the most popular requests we receive from the Brighton area. As with all of our glass, single glazed and double glazed options are available. Toughened safety glass is supplied as standard for all orders. Popular styles requested are chosen from our Charles Rennie Mackintosh gallery and the Frank Lloyd Wright gallery.

There are many other patterns to choose from such as Countryside Landscapes and traditional designs from our extensive Door Galleries. The Main Gallery is the place to start and if you cannot find a suitable design, send us your own design. We create bespoke glass panels every day so we can also make glass inspired by your current glass or from a photo/drawing you have.

Leaded Glass Sunrise For 1930s Door – Brighton

A customer from Brighton spotted our Good Morning design and loved it straight away. They had a 1930s door that needed renovating and they loved this stunning Overlay Stained Glass design. Problem was their glass was nowhere near the size of the glass shown in our gallery image. We told the client we could make a smaller version that just featured the sun and hills etc. The client placed the order and the link above shows you the drawing we created for approval.

Large Stained Glass Roses Window – Brighton

A client from the area sent us a hand drawing of a window they had designed and asked us to price up the glass. This was a large landing window and was to be supplied using toughened safety glass. All of our orders are created using toughened glass as standard. The client selected all their own colours from our colour swatch and we created a drawing for approval. The main link above shows the proof we supplied to the client.

Rennie Mackintosh Door & Matching Transom

A Brighton home-owner spotted our Blythswood Rose design recently and asked if we could create a door with a matching toplight. We gave the client a quote and they placed their order. A few days later we sent them a scale proof showing how their glass would look. They were really happy with the layout and gave the go-ahead for the glass to be created. The main link above takes you to their Client Page.

3. Fused Glass to Brighton

The photo above shows one of our Fused Glass leaves that is used in our popular fused glass patterns. Our fused glass panels are created by etching the background with the addition of stunning fused glass tiles. We create these hand-made fused glass tiles in our UK studio and many colours can be requested.

Popular fused glass galleries include our Mackintosh Gallery and our Tree Of Life Gallery. Our fused glass tiles are all hand cut and then they are placed in our kiln. 18 hours later they are fused and ready to be used to make our stunning glass panels. Fused Glass tiles are some of the most beautiful glass features we make. As standard, all glass is toughened and can be supplied single or double glazed.

4. Bevelled Glass to Brighton

The image above is a Bevelled Glass window we created for clients in Chelsea. This design is part of our popular American Bevelled Glass range and the photo is stunning example of the beauty of bevels. There are thousands of bevels to choose from and we can create toughened glass panels with stunning bevelled patterns. Again, single or double glazed is available and as standard we produce a drawing for approval before manufacture.
