Another rendition of the Famous Spear of Hastings Window (see MEA98100) this one a Double Spear Version complete with longer thrusting shafts. I love historical tiffany and this is a classic - Spear of Hastings copied from a circa 1500 English church window not far from the famous battlefield where Norman and Anglo-Saxon fought for the English Throne. (Hastings is generally rated as the most decisive battle, with far reaching overtones, for the English speaking world.) The spear pattern is also seen in the famous Bayeux Tapestry, c1066, recording the battle for posterity. Classic American Arts & Crafts coloration: Spear is Aurora Green with trim tones of Wood Brown and Rustic Red set against a background of Rippled Flemish Glass. (The Duke of Ghent sent mercenaries to fight for the Normans.) Meyda's window is framed in Bronze finished heavy gauge Brass and 100% art glass both copper foiled and hand leaded. Well sized at 30" high, 11" wide. Chain and hanging bracket with Bronze finish. #MEA68020 Sale price includes free UPS shipping
