Just thought I had a few photos that are just too good not to post here.

Assembly House: White etching, 1-3 etching in tones, briliant cutting and silvering.
It still looks like the holly grail to me. Would be great to learn this techniques and have this talent in skills.
Thanks for the photo's Doug! :)

Great shots as usual Mr B. I like the way they used to leave some of the shaded areas exposed as a mirror reflection ,it really adds some great depth to the illustration.

Erik. Hopefully will have an order like this soon. I have 10 windows to make like this at a pub here but without the flowers and birds ,I may talk them into some of this style.

Okay Guys...........Now I have to disappoint you both. This is just glass without silvering. Will dig up another from the same pub and post here tomorrow. It's all on the big(off-line)computer upstairs. The wee fella for typing isn't linked to Mr.Sparky upstairs which makes this all seamless! Have been developing photos from last years pub crawl and will find some choice ones to post.
