Leaded Windows

It is common for people to think of Leaded Windows as being intricate designs made from Stained and/or Coloured glass.
 
This is not necessarily the case as many windows can benefit from patterns utilising only lead, i.e. no coloured or stained glass is used.
 

The window pictured below is an example of this...



Leaded Windows can be made in two different ways each differing in the amount of work required and subsequently cost.
 
The window can be produced using traditional methods as if it were a Stained glass window or Leaded Light.
As this process requires new windows to be made, or your current windows to be removed during the process it is very time consuming and ultimately quite expensive.

A second, and much cheaper option, is for the design to be produced to scale on paper which is then used as a template in order to attach self-adhesive lead strip to your current windows. As this process can be carried out with your current windows in place it is much quicker, but no less effective than more traditional methods.
