Stained Glass

In our last house we commissioned this stained glass for a west facing window in the bedroom part of our barn. The light through it made lovely patterns on the opposite wall and it was (and is) a delight.
 
 
In the new house we have commissioned these guys to make something for the little holes in the end wall. He is the local man that did the last one, spends a lot of time repairing medieval stained glass in local churches. She is his new partner www.irislartiste.com. Lots of talk about the angle at which the light will come into the house, where the horizon sits when you look through them.......

 
Hard to photograph but today they have come and fitted them.

  1. Looks to be a good use of those apertures...and makes tyhem somewhat more romantic!

  2. I really love those, Rosie. They remind me of some tiny windows in the huge monastery church at Taize in Burgundy.
