Object Description
A very large and impressive gothic style red stained glass roundel from the workshops of British stained-glass artist, Sax Shaw.
Beautifully made, this round monumental scale leaded glass panel is a modern take on earlier medieval style rose cathedral windows. It is cleverly made up of different shades of red glass to form a floral design, the colours looking particularly striking when flooded with daylight.
Fitted into a fine steel perimeter with two hanging hooks to the top, this spectacular stained glass window is ready for placement in any home, traditional or modern alike.
Sax Shaw (1916-2000)
Yorkshire-born watercolour, tapestry and stained glass artist, Sax Roland Shaw, studied at Huddersfield before moving permanently to Scotland where he attended Edinburgh College of Art.
During his career, Shaw became one of Britain’s most influential post-war stained glass artists. Examples of his work can be found in churches across Scotland including St Mary’s in Sidegate, East Lothian and Hyndland Parish Church, Glasgow.
