Stained Glass Applications - Transom Windows

There may be nothing as traditional and charming as stained glass transom windows. Transom windows are so named due to their placement over the transom beam that separates the top of a door from the window directly above it. Stained glass windows for transom windows allow the soothing ambiance of multicolored light to gently penetrate inside through a kaleidoscope of brilliant color.

Stained glass transoms were first used in Victorian row houses. They added an ornamental touch to those grand decorative houses. Today, many new builders and renovators seek to recreate the look of old transom windows stained glass to add charm and character to homes, churches and other buildings. Stained glass transoms are so popular because they add an ornamental touch and a practical component. If the window is included for architectural integrity then the stained glass transom is fixed in place. If it is not necessary architecturally, then the stained glass transoms can open and close on a hinge allowing fresh air into the home. It is custom for many of these transom windows to showcase detailed stained glass transom patterns.

Now, because of indoor cooling and heating, transom windows rarely open. They are, however, used for decorative purposes and are an exceptional place to add stained glass, specifically if you are looking for that antique stained glass transom look. These stained glass transom windows bring in colorful sunlight and add texture around the front door.
