Mid-century modern Stained glass window - 1970-1980

Abstract Stained Glass Hanging Panel – Mid-1970s Modernist Geometric Composition
In mint condition – No reserve.

Striking handmade stained glass panel featuring a bold abstract geometric composition in deep cobalt blue, vivid ruby red, and soft blush/pale lilac tones. The flowing, intersecting curves create a dynamic modernist rhythm, characteristic of mid-1970s design, when decorative glass embraced strong color contrasts and expressive, architectural abstraction.

The panel is crafted using traditional leaded technique with hand-blown glass. The presence of natural air bubbles and subtle, minor surface irregularities are inherent to the artisanal glassmaking process and confirm the handmade character of the piece.

Set within a solid metal perimeter frame, the panel displays rich, luminous colors that create a spectacular play of light when placed in front of a window or light source. As sunlight passes through, the composition comes alive with saturated hues and soft tonal transitions.

This work reflects the mid-1970s revival of stained glass as a modern interior art form, bridging Mid-Century Modern principles with emerging contemporary studio glass aesthetics. Such panels were often commissioned for private homes, design interiors, and architectural accents.
