Stained lead glass - old city coat of arms of Bournemouth, England

You really have to see it in person to understand how exquisite it is! This is not ordinary colored glass~ This is a technique of "hand-painted and then fired in a kiln". Each stroke is painted and then fired at high temperature to become part of the glass, so it will not fade, and it is not a printed pattern pasted on. ✨ The round pattern in the middle is the old city emblem of Bournemouth. Divided into four patterns, very interesting: 🔹Blue lion: represents the traditional nobility and courage of England; 🔸Five-tailed fish: symbolizes the fishing port history of this city; 🔹Flocks of flying birds: a symbol of the British seaside, and also seems to say that this is a free and open place; 🔸Blue and gold cross: represents the intersection of sea and light, and also echoes that it is a seaside resort. These are not just random drawings, they are badges with meaning and identity! The surrounding glass is also very exquisite. The green part is embossed flower glass, which is hand-laid with lead strips one by one, and the structure is very solid. This technique was mainly used in town halls, churches, schools or train stations in the past, and it is not a window used by ordinary families. 📏The size is about 64cm long x 48cm wide, it is a complete original, has never been repaired, and is in excellent condition! Putting it near the window to let in light will really make you exclaim, as if the whole wall comes alive🌈 There is only this one piece available at the moment.

You will definitely not be disappointed! *This design gallery is mainly composed of European antiques, old items and second-hand items.
