R ANGING FROM TRADITIONAL Victorian and Edwardian designs to contemporary abstract and nature-inspired forms, this book is a tour of the palette of styles available to todays stained glass artisan. This collection of 162 stained glass designs by various artists proceeds generally from abstract motifs to flowers (including roses, poppies, sunflowers, morning glories, daffodils and irises) and thence to birds (including a crane, a partridge, a parrot, a hummingbird, a swan and a gull) and scenic compositions. The craftsperson will also find here useful representations o f bamboo, grapes, suns, shells, a sailboat and a fleur-de-lys. From the severely geometric to the exuberantly florid, this is an excellent comprehensive one-volume anthology of patterns for use in stained glass. The designs in this book, covering a wide range of styles and shapes, are well suited to a number of crafts applications including mobiles, ornaments, light catchers, windows, mirrors, candle shelters, panels, lampshades and fanlights. All of the designs can be reduced or enlarged as necessary using easily available photostatic equipment.

This book is intended as a supplement to stained glass instruction books (such as Stained Glass Craft by J. A. F. Divine and G. Blachford, Dover Publications, Inc., 0-486-22812-6).
