ABOUT BARRON GLASS

Authentic, traditional designs, lovingly preserved and recreated

With over 25-years of experience in manufacturing, operations and sales, our dedicated team of specialist staff oversee every aspect of the design, development and the production process.

The origins of decorative glass design can be traced to 1806, with John Davenport inventing and patenting the process of frosting glass. Initially used to decorate glassware, it caught the attention of, amongst others, Prince Regent, George IV, and was later adapted for use in window decoration during the 1820s.

At this time, designs were applied to sheet glass, using hand painted patterns on muslin, enamel and kiln-firing; ultimately the forerunner to the process of screen printing. Today, Barron Glass creates its beautiful designs honouring the traditional methods of over two centuries of craftsmanship, in an updated form, allowing large sheets to be produced with a greater degree of consistency.

Traditional glass enamel and pure silver stain are used to produce the bold, colourful styles, replicating those used in decoration of stained-glass windows.

The range covers the ever-popular, elegant, monochromatic styles including Bright Star, Empress and Fleur De Lys, and extends to the statement-making, colour-filled designs of Gothic Amber, Gothic Blue and Kelmscott.
