Residential stained and leaded glass dome ceiling for a custom-built luxury house developed for a Connecticut-based client. The decorative stained and leaded glass ceiling is a crown jewel of the majestic double-height great room with a two-story library beautifully framed with walnut crown moulding. The decorative glass skylight ceiling has a complex structure with burrel curved borders and a domed centre.

Large stained and leaded glass skylight ceiling with crystal chandelier for a double-height great living room floods the living space with natural light.
