Glass BEVELS, Jewels, Medallions, Nuggets

The things in this section are manufactured items designed to be incorporated into a stained glass window, lamp, or whatever else you choose, or in some instances may simply be wrapped in lead or foil to become the finished product. You can make money easily during your other wise unoccupied evenings by wrapping nuggets in lead or foil for sale on the morrow. (Gift Shops and Flea Markets are excellent outlets.)

Working with nuggets is a good way to get started in stained glass because it requires no glass cutting, is a low-budget undertaking, and shows quick results. Somewhat addictive, it is a pleasant way to spend a rainy afternoon.

Glass Rondels
Glass Rondels

Glass rondels are circular pieces of glass that have been formed into a disc shape. They can be blown or spun. Kokomo Opalescent Glass has a good description of the difference here. A rondel resembles the base of a wine glass, but it's more interesting. Because it is handmade, it will have swirls and bubbles that catch the light and make each rondel unique.

Glass rondels may be easily foiled or leaded, and incorporated into a larger work.

Our blown clear rondels are currently available in three sizes, 3", 4" and 6". Our spun colored rondels are 4" in diameter.

Glass Jewels
Glass Jewels

During the Victorian era, stained glass artisans often included glass "jewels" in the windows they created for their wealthy patrons. These craftsmen used the jewels to create a frame to encircle important parts of the design, or studded the repetitious border with jewels, alternating them with plain strips of colored glass. They might also use these jewels to depict the centers of flowers, or to emphasize important centers of interest.

Colored and Fired Medallions

These versatile discs are flat, clear window glass onto which multicolored figures and scenes are fired on at 1200 degrees so that the subjects actually fuse to the glass to become part of the surface.

You can wrap a single one in lead or foil and hang it to catch the sun in your window, or you can incorporate it into a larger project by adding a border.
