Traditional Stained Glass Leaded Panels and Windows

The pieces in this gallery have all been created using the centuries-old traditional method.
All the pieces of coloured glass are cut to shape. They are then assembled by fitting them into H-sectioned lead channels called cames.  During assembly, the pieces are held in place with horseshoe nails.  The joins are then cleaned and spot soldered on both sides.  The window is still fragile at this stage. Lead cement is then forced between the lead came and glass (again on borth sides) creating a weatherproof window.  Larger windows need to be reinforced with metal rods.  If done well, using good quality materials, a traditional stained glass leaded window can reamin weatherproof and hundreds of years.
