Description

A stained glass window, ca. 1895. The window is framed in a dark wood, 1 1/2"W at top and bottom and 2" wide on the left and right. Divided into three panels, the glass has a blue border. The two outer panels are sunburst designs with 2" diameter round pieces of glass that are largely clear but with green tints. A series of 16 cames extend in rays from these central pieces. The glass within these cames is brown, as is the border around the sun designs. The center panel consists of ten round pieces of glass in various sizes and colors connected by geometrically shaped pieces of glass colored green, yellow, and brown. The panels are divided by two support bars affixed to the glass in three places. In good condition with two cracked pieces in the center panel and two in the right panel. None
