Narrowboat Cratch Window 

I was asked if I could do anything with this lovely colourful stained glass cratch window.  I’d never come across one like this before but always up for a challenge, I decided that this one could be a fun project to complete and would add to the diversity of work I have undertaken in my time with this wonderful craft.  The problem it seemed was the window, being at the front of the boat, or cratch as it is known (I learnt so much!) was beginning to bow and because of this pieces of the glass had cracked or fallen out.  It was in a sorry state and deserved a bit of tlc.  The project was to re-lead the panel, replace the broken pieces and have it encapsulated between two pieces of toughened glass to make it beautiful again and protect it from the wear and tear of daily boating life.  In order to prepare it for encapsulation, I also had to reduce the panel in size so that it would fit.  If you are interested to watch the process I went throughfrom the beginning to completion, you can find this here on my instagram reel.

Under Stairs Encapsulated Art Window with Special Meaning

One of the joys of my craft is to be able to create unique gifts and pieces for client’s homes that they will treasure.  This commission project was a very special stained glass leaded window that I created from my Hayfield client’s brief to be positioned in a purpose built space between the stairs and their lovely new kitchen to flood either side with colourful light at different times of the day.  It included a hand painted silhouette of her late father and his four legged friend out walking in our beautiful local High Peak countryside, as he always loved to do. I had this window encapsulated with toughened glass for safety, security, easy cleaning and thermal purposes. Don’t you agree it looks fabulous backlit and a constant reminder of her dear father.
