    Description

    Antique American stained glass window, large in size. As found condition. Super window, 13 bullseye type rondels, 8 ground to a point rondels or jewels, 2 faceted pressed jewels. Colors are amazing, my pics do not show the amount of Fire that the glass radiates, even the rondels are streaked, 1 is purple and is amazing when lit. Large in size, glass measures 58" x 18 1/8". Solid wood frame, looks original to the window, measures 62" x 22". There are 2 original iron support rods installed. The window can be hung or displayed just as it is, it is all intact, manageable. There are however some cracked in place pieces including, unfortunately, 1 of the streaked ox blood red rondels. While the rondel it is cracked with a very small piece missing it is still held tightly to the surrounding pieces. The window background glass shows more purple on 1 end than the other, transitions to an amber orange. There are old repairs evident, replaced pieces on the 1 end with them being a bit more flat or translucent than the other surrounding original glass. Whomever did the work in replacing the mentioned pieces used a cheater style repair method where the lead is carefully trimmed back enough to remove and then reinstall the glass piece. The replacement piece is normally wrapped in either thin lead or copper foil, set in place & then soldered to the adjacent pieces. To me it looks like instead of solder they used putty or glazing compound, not really sure. They did take the time to color it so it does match the surrounding lead patina. This is exactly how i found the window, as is, as seen in pics. I can send additional pics as well. I will answer any questions that you may have to the best of my ability. Being that the window is large, fragile and heavy i do not wish to ship it. Local pickup  welcome. I can deliver the window depending on location, fee for distance traveled after 150 miles.
