AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Vintage Stained-Glass Hanging Panel – Arts & Crafts Revival – approx. 1977 – Signed – In excellent condition – No reserve.

A finely hand-crafted stained-glass hanging panel that brings the warm, artistic spirit of the 1970s Arts & Crafts revival into the present. Suspended from its original chain, the panel captures and transforms daylight into a rich interior glow through a balanced, late-Art-Deco vocabulary of strict symmetry and expressive colour accents. The design features a rising-sun floral fan composition framed by geometric side fields and circular glass “jewels”, a popular motif among studio glass artists working in the 1960s–70s.

Crafted as an independent artisan piece, this panel is a strong decorative statement for both classic and contemporary interiors—ideal for hanging in front of a window, in a hallway, or as part of a curated decorative-arts collection.

Historical Context
During the 1960s–1970s, stained-glass artistry experienced a renewed appreciation driven by the Arts & Crafts revival. Independent glass studios and artisans began producing decorative hanging panels—often signed with monograms and production years—to serve the growing demand for handcrafted interior accents that modulated daylight into coloured ambience. The jewel rondels and strict mirrored symmetry seen in this panel echo earlier Arts & Crafts ideals, re-interpreted through the bold interior palettes of the 1970s, including petrol green, olive, amber, smoked brown, magenta, orange, and cobalt blue centrepieces.
