Solopark stained glass arrives – as I wrote in a previous blog here<\/strong><\/a> I have obtained stained glass\u00a0from the Solopark<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong> group and this week\u00a0I have another batch.<\/p>\n

Included was this interesting stained glass panel depicting a small blonde boy collecting windfall apples and apparently watched over the gate by his grandfather or possibly caught in the act of scrumping by the orchard owner!<\/p>\n

The sharp eyed amongst you will have noted the missing right hand corner where it has received a hard knock. I have the three shards of glass and when I strip the panel down I will aim to conserve the panel by\u00a0bonding the glass back into position using a UV balanced glass glue which should make the repair almost invisible.\u00a0 I have used this type of glue before to rescue a cracked centre\u00a0panel inside the leaded windows for this<\/a><\/strong> project in Surbiton<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The other option is to cut the panel which will make it rectangular\u00a0and would lose the detail of the ladder.<\/p>\n

Here is a closer view of the young boy showing the detail of the panel showimg the excellent work in the painting:<\/p>\n

Stripping down of the leaded panel will begin next week and the rebuilt\u00a0stained glass\u00a0will then include all new lead and replacement red glass where required to make it as good as new. Overall the orchard scene\u00a0measures\u00a010″ x 8″ and once finished will make an endearing light catcher or the centerpiece for\u00a0something\u00a0larger – I look forward to when\u00a0the next batch of\u00a0Solopark stained glass arrives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
