C. Cornish Window

You never knows what is going to come your way. Recently a new client came to me with a very distressed old gothic window frame. In fact it was only the top portion. It arrived with a story. Rescued from a barn on the family property which was soon to be sold, the client wanted to have a design made for it as a reminder of the old homestead.  Naturally the first order of business was to repair the frame and refinish it. Once that was done it was possible to move ahead with creating templates for the irregular shaped openings.

Working from photographs of the intended space where the panel would hang, we arrived at a rich colour scheme. The pattern itself was derived from Art Nouveau themes and used glass globs to create interest and a classic painted element for the round focal point in the top section.

The completed panel.

The panel installed.  I quite liked how the panel in the window framed the view outside. 
The client was very happy with what they felt would become a new treasured family heirloom.
