Leadlight Panels

Pieces of metal came are also soldered around the panel to help hold the pieces of glass in place. These cames might be made of copper, lead, brass or zinc. Leadlight panels are installed in a door in the same way as stained glass panels.

These panels are similar to stained glass. However, they have less elaborate designs than stained glass. They also differ from stained glass because they are not coloured.
