May madness- Front door transformation

From Ebay to installed, this 1890's stained glass window was salvaged by a dealing in the East. The original door was cut in half to save the window. It was sent to us with the original door frame still in tack. There are 5 types of glass included. Clear beveled and glue chip along with the prism leaf pattern makes this piece a real find. Installation required removing the old glass and several levels of old framing.  The final hole in the door was made to fit the window frame in order to preserve the integrity of the old window frame.

Thea installation is nearly complete in May. The final touch will be molding around the frame and prime and paint.
