<p>I would like to ask the Mastodon hive- mind a question about <a href="/tags/stainedglass/" rel="tag">#StainedGlass</a>. The background story is that I went to a giant yard sale/antique sale in Frankfurt West <a href="/tags/germany/" rel="tag">#Germany</a> in 1986 or so and bought these two pieces. They went in to storage, they took some damage but now I want to know more about them and possibly have at least one of them repaired. I was told that they were pulled from a small church that was being demolished years before and they'd been in a basement for a couple of generations before this person sold them to me.</p><p>So does anyone have any idea what I have here? How old are they and should I cannibalize one of them to make the other into a better piece? I'd love to build one of them into the wall of a sunny room in my house or stabilize it, frame it and backlight it as an art piece. <br>These are three pictures of the same piece, the other one is missing the M shape center piece (broken) but is otherwise in tact.</p><p>I look forward to your insights and any comments you choose to make and thank you for your time!</p><p><a href="/tags/art/" rel="tag">#Art</a> <a href="/tags/artstodon/" rel="tag">#Artstodon</a> <a href="/tags/medieval/" rel="tag">#Medieval</a> <a href="/tags/glass/" rel="tag">#Glass</a></p>
