Commissions

Due to time constraints I'm currently unable to undertake any commissions.

Here are some examples of leaded work I have completed as commissions in the past:


1. Tulip doors & fanlight.

These storm doors and fan light are decorated with a striking tulip design.

The photograph is taken from inside to show the effect of sunlight shining through the glass.

The transmitted light creates lovely coloured shadows on interior walls.



2. Frosted bathroom door.

This bathroom door is decorated with a trailing flower design created using lead and glass pebbles.

The frosted effect maintains privacy whilst allowing light to stream into the hallway.

The Andamento logo has been adapted from photographs of this design.






3. Small rose window.

This little window was my first piece. It was designed to compliment a wallpaper motif and to obscure an unattractive window.

The lead used in this particular piece actually has a brass finish to match the wallpaper and the lead joints are therefore tucked rather than soldered. It is difficult to see these effects when the window is backlit but they become apparent when frontlit.

This is the wallpaper motif on which the window is based.



4. Mirror.

At 60cm by 30 cm this mirror is slightly larger than my standard ones.
It was made to brighten up the end wall of a dark landing which was otherwise bare, hence why I felt free to let loose the flowers, swirls and border rather than confining myself to one or two elements!


4. Kingfisher Mirror.

This is probably my favourite mirror to date. It was made to fit a blocked in window recess and is 50cm x 50cm in size.
