Stained glass restorations are a delicate and intricate process that requires skill, patience and creativity. One of the most challenging and rewarding types of stained glass restorations is on an art deco door. Art deco is a style of design that emerged in the 1920s and 1930s, characterized by geometric shapes, bold colors and streamlined forms. Art deco doors often feature stained glass panels that reflect the aesthetic of the era, such as abstract patterns, floral motifs or geometric designs. To restore a stained glass panel on an art deco door, one needs to carefully remove the old lead, clean the glass pieces, repair any cracks or chips, and reassemble the panel with new lead and solder. The restored panel should match the original design and color scheme as closely as possible, while also enhancing the beauty and functionality of the door.
