How do I hang a window panel?

These panels require secure mounting within a window frame or against an interior wall with sufficient light behind them to display the colours. Professional installation is recommended for heavier timber-framed pieces to ensure the lead and glass structure remains supported.

How do I date a panel?

Dating relies on stylistic clues, such as Art Nouveau curves, Gothic Revival pointed arches, or the subject matter of the hand-painted scenes. Materials like pine frames and the specific type of lead cames also point toward periods like the Victorian era or the 1930s.

Were these made for homes?

Many panels served as interior or exterior doors and windows in domestic Victorian and Edwardian properties. Others originated from larger institutional settings, including churches and public buildings, before entering architectural salvage.

What subjects appear on panels?

Common motifs include hand-painted countryside scenes, castles, lakes with boats, and winter landscapes. Other designs feature botanical subjects like flowers and birds on branches, alongside figural works such as Dutch children.
