About this piece
back to topA geometric stained glass window by Goddard and Gibbs.
This is an abstract modernist stained glass window with an unusual design, blending together a range of vibrant colours, shapes and patterns.
A subtle stylised ear of wheat can be seen to the centre surround by vivid colours in a geometric display.
The perfect characterful window to be flooded with daylight so the vibrant colours brought to life in a contemporary home.
Goddard and Gibbs
Established in 1868 Goddard and Gibbs were a renowned stained glass studio producing traditional and contemporary pieces for various churches all over the world.
The company was initially established as Walter Gibbs & Sons on Blackfriars Road in London before the studio was taken over by James Clark & Sons, and in 1938 acquired Goddards Glass Works.
The was later taken over by James Clark & Eaton, and in 1978 the studio was bought by Charles Clark.
Their chief designer after this was John Lawson (1932-2009), who had joined the firm in 1970 from Faithcraft.
Goddard & Gibbs continued to keep continuity in the quality and design despite the various changes. The company is now based in Corsham, Wiltshire, and continues to thrive.
The panel is a wonderful find not only due to its striking geometric design but also the monogram GG seen to the bottom left corner.
