Coloured Etched Glass & Fired Enamel Decorative Panels
We offer a wide range of coloured decorative glass panels suitable for both doors and windows.
At Art Glass, we specialise in producing vibrant fired enamel glass and beautifully etched coloured glass, available in amber, blue, red & green.
This unique handmade process has become increasingly popular with our customers, especially for period homes and bespoke restoration projects.
Please note: Fired enamel colours should only be used internally if single-glazed, unless the glass is protected by a canopy or produced as double-glazed units for external use. Like any enamel surface, external exposure can cause staining from acid rain and weathering, so always ensure the enamel layer faces inward.
Coloured & Etched Repeat Pattern Glass Panels
The images on this page show our Victorian-style Druids Cross designs with fired enamel applied in amber, blue, green, and red.
Each panel is handcrafted using our specialist etched-glass process, with the etched design on one side and the fired enamel colour on the reverse.
All etched glass can be toughened to meet current safety regulations, and panels can also be supplied as double-glazed units when required.

Coloured Etched Glass for Downham (Nine-Panel) Doors
Coloured glass is a popular choice for traditional Downham doors, also known as nine-panel doors, thanks to its vibrant appearance and excellent light-diffusing qualities.
Our coloured etched and fired enamel glass panels can be tailored to suit the unique sizing of Downham door layouts, including the small perimeter panes and the larger central panels.
Whether you prefer rich reds, deep blues, warm ambers or decorative repeat patterns, we can recreate or customise designs to complement both period and modern homes. If you're looking to update an existing Downham door or add a touch of authentic Victorian character, our bespoke glass options provide a stunning and practical solution.
We supply a range of coloured glass originally designed for Downham (nine-panel) doors, though many of these pieces can also be used in other applications such as borders for arched or feature windows.

Frequently Asked Questions About Coloured Glass
Natural Glass Properties
Our coloured glass range is created using traditional fired enamel techniques, where each panel is coated with enamel and kiln-fired, a method that has been used for generations, dating back to the 18th century.
As shown in the image, fired enamel glass naturally contains small seeds (also known as tiny air bubbles). Some customers mistake these as imperfections, but this is not the case. These characteristics are a natural part of handmade glass and contribute to the authentic, antique appearance that many people value.
These small bubbles are only noticeable when viewing the glass very closely, at eye level. Once the glass is fitted and viewed at a normal distance, they are barely visible and do not affect the beauty or quality of the finished panel.
Red Fired Enamel Natural Properties
Our red fired enamel has a unique chemical composition that includes trace amounts of gold. Because of this, when the glass is laid flat with the enamel side facing downward, it can appear to have a dark purple or blue tone. This is completely normal and often surprises customers when they first unpack their glass.
However, once the panel is picked up and viewed in natural light, as shown in the example image, the colour reveals its true, vibrant deep red. This shift in appearance is not a flaw, but a natural characteristic of vitreous enamels. The same effect can be seen in traditional stained glass found in churches, where fired enamel colours behave in exactly the same way.
The Difference Between Flashed Glass & Fired Enamel Glass
Many customers assume that our fired enamel glass will match the original coloured panels already in their home. However, in some cases the existing glass is actually flashed glass, which is a completely different material and behaves differently in both colour and texture.
Below you'll find comparison photos showing fired enamel and flashed glass side by side, helping you clearly see the differences between the two.
If you would like to learn more about flashed glass, please visit our Brilliant Cut Glass Page., where we explain the process in more detail.
Victorian Coloured Flashed Glass
Do you have glass in your home similar to the example shown on the left?
This is Victorian flashed glass with a decorative design etched into the coloured surface.
Over the decades, flashed glass was produced in a wide variety of patterns, colours, and panel shapes, and here at Art Glass, we have recreated many of these traditional designs for customers across the UK.
These panels are also closely related to some styles found in our Brilliant Cut Glass range.
All flashed glass reproductions are priced on application, as costs vary depending on the colour, size, and complexity of the design. To receive an accurate quote, please send us your glazing sizes along with clear photographs of the panel that requires replacing.
