Stained Glass Circular Window

The studio is in the process of working on a round window for a private residence in Stourbridge. The design is based on movement and inspired by nature.

Alongside the glass design, the clients have commissioned a wooden window frame for the stained glass to be installed into. We have been working with ‘Jamie Hubbard Creative Woodwork’; also based at the Ruskin Glass Centre in Stourbridge, who has produced a fantastic wooden frame.

Once the stained glass panel is complete, it will be double glazed and be ready for installation in the clients home.
