4 Panel Leaded Glass Porch Commission for a private house

I met a couple a few years ago at the "Folk Forest" craft market, back in the days when I was selling from a stall at lots of such events,  We chatted at some length about the potential for the design and making of a larger piece than the type of thing I had for sale that day and they took my business card away. 

4 years later....!

they contacted me and I went out to meet them at their home.  From the outside the house appears really quite plain, but inside is a trove of original artworks made from a vast range of materials. The internal 4 panel window to the porch was glazed with "Pilkington Cotswold" (fitting for the period and still often used today for bathroom windows).  I spent some time sketching on the theme of Sunflowers and sourcing as much lovely green glass as I could for the various foliage.  The project took a few weeks to accomplish. but I was delighted with the end result, as were my clients
