The first left hand image shows pieces of The Cornwallis Window having been painted and about to be fired in the kiln.
The right hand image shows glass cut and ready for painting on for a window depicting St Bernard which has been commissioned and will be installed by St Bernards Catholic Grammar School, near Slough, and Stuart, an ex student from 25 years ago and now our workshop manager cutting and fitting glass for another Stained and Leaded window design for a chapel.
The next image shows one of Steve's glass storage areas all waiting to be chosen. Each sheet of glass at least £50 and some well over £100 so quite an investment, and a picture of the mobile fitting workshop used by Nathan Sherriff for the onsite work.
