Mounted into a frame, it will make a striking feature piece in the windows of any home, the colours bringing a room to life when flooded with daylight.

During his career, Shaw became one of Britain’s most influential post-war stained glass artists. Examples of his work can be found in churches across Scotland including St Mary’s in Sidegate, East Lothian and Hyndland Parish Church, Glasgow.
