Southampton Bevelled Glass

Founded in 1994, the Leadbitter Glass Studio has been supplying Bevelled Glass panels to homes and businesses across Southampton ever since. We also deliver to every other part of the UK. While Southampton’s period properties were originally fitted with etched or stained glass, Bevelled Glass has become a popular contemporary upgrade over the years for homeowners across the city looking to bring a sharper, more reflective style of decorative glass to their doors and windows.

Our Bevelled Glass designs are created using small pieces of glass assembled into beautiful patterns, supplied as single or double-glazed glass for windows and doors. With hundreds of stock patterns to choose from — including diamonds, squares, rectangles and teardrops — the design possibilities are almost endless. Almost every panel we make qualifies for free delivery to Southampton addresses.

We’ve made glass for a Prime Minister’s home, for Hollywood film sets, and for well-known singers and billionaires — but the vast majority of our work is for homeowners just like you. We also make other styles of Decorative Glass for Southampton clients, including Stained Glass, Etched Glass, and Fused Glass.

American Bevelled Glass

American Bevelled Glass ranks among our most requested styles — hundreds of small rectangular and square bevels arranged edge-to-edge to cover the entire panel. The style takes its name from its long-standing popularity in American glasswork, and it’s a look many will recognise from film and television. Available in numerous widths and lengths, these rectangular pencil bevels give our glass artists huge creative scope when designing your Southampton panel.

Every bevel is applied by hand and UV bonded to a single sheet of toughened safety glass. The traditional method used lead alone to hold each piece together, with no supporting glass base at all — more akin to assembling a jigsaw puzzle than building a solid panel.

Compared to that older method, our modern technique offers real benefits. A single sheet of toughened glass closes the gaps a lead-only “jigsaw” panel would leave for cold air, and we can also build it as a double-glazed unit for further insulation. Certain bevel shapes and clusters come in bronze, blue, or green glass, with some featuring a Gluechip texture for added distinction.
