Topic: Scottish coloured glass windows - any hints?

[kit.allen]

Hi folks,

We have a house in a small village in Southern Scotland. It was built around 1850. Of interest is our hall window, which has a rather nice stained glass effect with blue and red panels. See attached photo.

Over the weekend, I visited a friend in his new house in Motherwell. It's late Victorian, and to my surprise, it has two near-identical windows.

I can't find out anything from searching online and Google Images, so I wondered if anyone else might have any knowledge about these windows? We're about 50 miles apart so I wondered if they might have been manufactured in the Central Belt or nearby.

Any information or historical context would be really interesting to know. Thanks!

  Hello and welcome.
You'll find lovely stained glass windows in most Scottish houses of this age. And in old tenement closes, where you'll also find glorious old ceramic tiles on the walls.
Sadly, I have never been able to find out where they were made, or by whom.
I'm just very grateful to have some myself, in Dundee.

I've done some research into cut to clear coloured glass windows and also the ' mousselinglas' of the plain clear etched interior panels.
Unfortunately I didn't find much for our windows but did find a pattern match here:

Searching a bit further just now I've come up with this re the cut to clear coloured glass, which I don't think I'd noticed or realised before but I've not reread my whole thread (you have to click on the coloured glass panel and the info comes up on screen as you scroll) :

'A. & W. Schell in Offenburg Germany' - their source is 'Corning Museum of Glass: Mousselin Glas Fabrik, Glasmalarei & Glasschleiferei von A. & W. Schell in Offenburg, Baden '

Scrolling down on that link they show a number of patterns from Chance 1847 as well.



I've also just found this information from Pressglas Korrespondenz.  It's in German so you will need to translate:

That's as far as I've got but I'm beginning to suspect my own  cut to clear Art Nouveau windows were made in Germany or perhaps France even.
