Fanlight

Most of the coloured glass for the fanlight is now cut. I still need to choose a yellow for the large Inverted moustache, but finally with the stronger colours in proportion I can find one with the right balance. The clear infill pieces are still to do, but as usual I have offered the client the opportunity to visit our studio and have a go at cutting some of the glass, which has been enthusiastically accepted. ClearCathedral glass is reasonably straightforward to cut, so is ideal for a first attempt, it's just fitting the session into tight timetables which may not be easy. 
This is also a first fix with the glass, there is still some minor grinding to do (on the greens in particular which is brittle and difficult with concave curves), so I will save that till its all complete. Hope you like it.
