Frequently Asked Questions
What is a decorative window?
A decorative window is a window designed primarily for aesthetic purposes rather than functional aspects such as ventilation or insulation. These windows are often used to enhance the architectural style and visual appeal of a building. Decorative windows can incorporate various artistic elements, such as stained glass, etched glass, leaded glass, or uniquely shaped frames.
What are the key features / benefits of decorative windows?
Artistic Elements:
Decorative windows often feature artistic designs, including stained glass, etched patterns, beveled glass, or intricate leaded glass designs. These elements can create beautiful visual effects when light passes through the window.
Unique Shapes and Sizes:
Unlike standard rectangular windows, decorative windows can come in a variety of shapes such as circles, arches, ovals, hexagons, and more. These unique shapes add character and interest to the building’s façade.
Customizable Designs:
Decorative windows can be customized to match the architectural style of the building and the personal preferences of the homeowner. This includes selecting colors, patterns, and materials that complement the overall design theme.
Non-Operable Options:
Many decorative windows are fixed, meaning they do not open or close. Their primary purpose is to enhance the appearance of the building and allow light to enter while adding an element of artistry.

The cost of decorative windows can vary widely based on several factors, such as:
