Glass Jubilee

John Reyntiens at the gallery

Those of you who came to our Patrick Reyntiens exhibition opening in December will remember the fantastic talk and demonstration given by Patrick’s son – John Reyntiens. (Unfortunately Patrick broke his hip the day before so was unable to join us.) 

I've Slipped, I've Slipped!

John has been in the news this week as his new stained glass window was unveiled in the Palace of Westminster, commissioned to commemorate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee.
 
The window, designed and made of around 1,500 separate pieces, will be installed in its permanent position later this year.



Put it Up! Put it Up!

Or take a peek at the colourful stained glass in our Patrick Reyntiens collection, to which these two panels here belong.
