Overlay Stained Glass
Stained glass overlays are a unique way to create art glass with the appearance and feel of stained glass, but with the strength and sturdiness that is a solid piece of safety glass. The process involves bonding colored Mylar(r) film to a pane of clear glass, then covering the edges with genuine lead strips. It can be done over existing windows and doors of any size or shape, without having to remove the glass. The overlays can be created in a variety of standard or custom designs to match the style of the room furnishings and decorating schemes.
Stained Glass Overlay is an excellent option when you want to add intricate details to your panels without the restrictions of lead lines and tempered glass. This method of construction produces a tough material that can withstand water and air leaks. It is often an alternative to stained-glass when code requirements prohibit the use of this material.
Foil overlays can be used to add depth and texture to your artwork. They are easy to create and can be used either on the front or back of your panel. Here you can see an illustration of a foil overlay tree created by reader Robert Oddy and notice how he uses the copper seams to create contours in his "tree". This technique is not as common, but it can be very efficient. It is best utilized with solder 63/37 because it is quicker to set and is more resistant to lifting than other types of flux. It is also possible to hammer texture into the foil prior to tinning it to achieve some really nice effects.
Traditional Stained Glass
Stained glass reflects both the religious and artistic beliefs that its creators possess. The windows of churches usually contain Biblical scenes, saints or important figures from the history of the church. They usually depict scenes from Jesus his life. They are also used to honor the deaths of members of the congregation. They are also a popular feature in secular buildings such as schools and libraries.

Early stained glass was painted with various techniques. The first was using paint that was brushed onto the surface of a piece clear glass. This technique was referred to as grisaille and a great example can be seen in the window depicting the Annunciation of the Lord at York Minster. The 13th century saw the creation of colored glass that was painted on clear glass. This allowed the artist to produce more detailed and realistic representations of the subjects. The most common colour used was blue as it is a color that is associated with Heaven.
The movement for arts and crafts in the 19th century, with its emphasis on hand-made craftsmanship and the use of hand-made tools, led to the revival of stained glass. This was partly a reaction against the excesses of the Gothic revival which was a popular cause of architects like Augustus Welby Pugin. In this time, the art of painting on glass grew more specific and artists were working in studios, sharing equipment and collaborating to improve their abilities.
There are many skilled stained-glass makers in the UK. Many have developed a style that is influenced by both traditional methods and modern technology. The majority of these designers are members of the British Society of Master Glass Painters which was established in 1921 and still exists to this day as Britain's only professional body dedicated solely to the practice of stained glass.
The stained glass of the present is made of glass shards held together by lead came. It comes in various colours and can be bent into a variety of shapes to form the design. The cost of a panel is determined by the complexity of the design and the amount of glass pieces that are required. Simple geometric designs with straight lines and rectangles are cheaper than more complex curves or a mixture of shapes. The shards are then joined by lead came that is then soldered before being polished and cemented to finish the panel.
Modern Stained Glass
Modern stained glass is a popular choice for Basingstoke residents who are concerned about security. Rather than being made from small pieces of glass that are held together with 'H'-shaped lead strips like a jigsaw overlay stained glass is constructed from a single piece toughened glass and is in compliance with current building regulations. Overlay stained glass comes in a variety of colours that allows you to make the style you'd like for your home.
