Decorative Glass

Georgian windows are an iconic window style that you’ll recognise across homes in Britain. The characteristic look of a Georgian window is where each pane of glass is divided into six or more sections with glazing bars. This form of decorated glass is a classy and elegant way to add some interest to your windows without adding coloured or textured glass.

At Britannia we give you the freedom to decide on how to separate the glass. We can provide the traditional raised glazing bars, or you can choose to install the bars inside the glazing, making the window easier to clean. Contact us to find out more about Georgian windows for your home.

We manufacture our windows ourselves, so we pride ourselves on being able to offer an array of different grid styles so that you can have a window, door or conservatory that reflects your personality. From the classic square or diamond grid, to intricate grids that encompass a variety of shapes, you just need to contact us to talk about how we can make your decorative glass dream a reality.

We can also help you decide whether you want to embellish your grid design with other decorative glass options like coloured or textured glass, without sacrificing on security or quality.

This depends on the type of decorated glass you choose. If you want a grid design with raised glazing panels, then dust may collect on these panels and you’ll have to wipe them down. If you’re looking for a more practical, easy-clean window with the same design, we can install internal Georgian bars, giving you the look of divided panels while still being able to clean with a quick wipe.

Bevelled and coloured glass requires the same maintenance as any other glass; just a quick spray of window cleaner and then wiping down with a clean cloth.

As we create our windows in our state of the art factory near Bristol, we have almost unlimited potential with what we can manufacture for you. If you have a specific design that you would love to see on your front door, then you just need to contact us and talk to one of our experts, who will do their best to make your decorative glass design a reality.

Bevelled glass is a traditional way to add a decorative element to your window. It refers to a pane of glass that has had its edges cut at a specific angle that goes around the frame. This cut edge can either be left textured or polished to be clear, and allows light into your home from different angles, sometimes refracting the light and splitting it into the colours of the rainbow.

Bevelled glass is a popular option for front doors, as they add a decorative element without reducing any of the light coming in from the window. Bevelling can also be used in conjunction with any of our other decorative glass options for a more intricate design.

Where you install decorative glass depends on the purpose you want it to serve. If you are looking to reduce visibility into your home from the outside, then installing textured or coloured glass on a bathroom window or a front door would do the trick. If you want to add a design piece to your home, then getting a quirky design for an interior window will give your home some added style and colour!

Decorative glass can be used in many ways to add a bit of your personality to your home, and our experts are here to help you decide on the various designs we provide and what would work best for your home.
