Restoration Glass
® resembles glasses made before the advent of modern window glass. Produced exclusively for Bendheim by Germany’s Glashütte Lamberts, where craftsmen hand-make each sheet utilizing centuries-old, authentic
antique window glass making techniques. Its subtle imperfections allow historically-accurate detailing of homes, buildings and furniture. Every glass sheet is hand-selected at the factory to ensure the finest quality.
This authentic new antique window glass is available in two varieties, Full and Light.
Full Restoration Glass® is more distorting and accurately represents much of the glass made in the 17th and 18th centuries. Its approximate sheet size is 24” x 36” with thickness of approximately 1/8”.
Light Restoration Glass® is less distorting and closely resembles glass found in structures built in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Its approximate sheet size is 34” x 38” with thickness of approximately 3/32”
Bendheim now offers both varieties of Restoration Glass® in safety form, laminated to 1/8” float (window) glass in compliance with today’s exacting building safety codes. Laminated Restoration Glass® is ideal for use in doors, sidelites, windows, or wherever safety and security are required. Both Full and Light Restoration Glass® laminated varieties are approximately 5/16” in thickness.
