It's 10.25 inches short, Mike. It's only a wee one, height-wise. It's 15 " wide. There are several wave forms shown in the exhibition section of his site.

Hi there:

they wanted $50 for it, but I found some other things there -- so I made an offer of $50 for everything......so I ended up paying about $35 for it with the group of items I bought

Not too much I hope....??  I would have bought for $50 but when I had found several other things at this estate sale -- grouped them up, and made one offer of all for $50.

I really like it!!

Brilliant price when you think to make would cost you more than that to buy the materials.
Well done.

I have a feeling that the rolled plate bits (the textured pieces) might be a Pilkington design.

That daisy pattern is one I'm more familiar with seeing in toilet domestic windows.  :24:

Our panels have been damaged by burglars who smashed the windows, then trampled on the panels when climbing in, so they've been off to the lovely Liz Rowley (stained glass artist) to get repaired. Each time, it has been about £100 for the repair - I'm not complaining at all - it was a lot of work and getting it done professionally was well worth it. Liz got her students to do a good bit of it to keep the bill down for us.

Antiquerose123 you got that for a steal! I thought I'd show you my pieces. The first one is right above me in my office blocking the view of a storage shed. The second one is above my sink in the kitchen, there was a window there a long time ago, addition was added and they left it open. The third is in the family room. I had the one hanging but when the sun set the reflection off my neighbor's house about blinded me so I set another one below it, now I see a pretty glow.
