Leadbitter Glass manufactures and delivers many different forms of decorative glass around the Fareham area. We manufacture and deliver Etched Glass, Bevelled Glass, Overlay Stained Glass and Fused Glass panels. We specialise in manufacturing and delivering bespoke glass to residential customers but we have also supplied glass for use in blockbuster movies and some of the worlds largest corporations.

Our studio produces four distinct types of decorative glass which are available for delivery to homes in Fareham.

1. Etched Glass to Fareham

Of the many types of glass decorative glass we supply, Etched Glass is one of the most popular requests we receive from the Fareham 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.

Pub Style Etched Glass Window – Fareham

In 2015, a client from Fareham requested a Victorian-style etched glass panel with a clear background. They chose one of our stock designs, and we created a scale proof for approval. The link above showcases the design we created for the customer. The white sections were left clear, as privacy wasn’t an issue for the client, while the grey areas were sandblasted to create the etched finish.

Etched Glass Gypsophila Fanlight

A few years ago, we were asked to create a fanlight version of our popular Gypsophila design. The client requested two variations of the design, each with differing levels of detail. We uploaded both options for the client, which can be viewed in the main link above. Once the design was approved, we began etching the glass using the approved drawing as our template. The glass was supplied as 4mm toughened glass.

2. Overlay Stained Glass to Fareham

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 Fareham 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.

Patchwork Quilt Stained Glass Window

In 2017, we were asked to create a pair of toughened glass panels featuring a patchwork quilt-style design. The client provided a rough sketch of their vision, and we offered a price. Once the order was confirmed, we developed a realistic rendering of how the glass would look and uploaded it to the client’s dedicated page on our website. The link above will take you to the client’s page. After the design was approved, we crafted the panels using toughened Minster Glass.

3. Fused Glass to Fareham

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 Fareham

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.

What we do

Our decorative glass studio specialises in creating bespoke decorative glass panels for homes and businesses in Fareham. We also supply our glass anywhere in the UK and we sometimes receive orders from around the world. Most of the orders we receive are from homeowners looking to replace their old or damaged glass.

We supply toughened safety glass as standard for all our products. You can choose single or double-glazed options or even triple glazed glass if it is required. We can provide laminated or Fire rated glass but these types of glass carry extra charges on top of a standard quotation.

Our service

When customers place an order with us, they get to preview their glass design before we make the actual glass. Our glass artists create high quality proofs to show you, the client exactly how your glass will look before manufacture. Once you get to see the drawings, you would have the opportunity to request alterations to the layout and colours. We only create the actual glass once the client has told us the design is absolutely perfect. After creating the glass, we deliver it directly to your Fareham home or your chosen window or door supplier.
