Brief Description of Subject: The Music Room window is placed between the two flues of the room's fireplace chimney and is mounted in an ash wood frame. The machine-made cathedral glass dates to pre-1850. The "American Geometric" pattern includes "bull's eye" glass insets and all have been leaded with dome-shaped caming. Some of the geometric shapes have been etched with further detail of the flora/vine patterns which has been painted/stained with enamels on the exterior surface. Unfortunately, much of the original paint has been lost to weathering.

The MSGC is a constantly evolving database. Not all the data that has been collected by volunteers has been sorted and entered. Not every building has been completely documented.

All images in the Index are either born-digital photographs of windows or buildings or are scans of slides, prints, or other published sources. These images have been provided by volunteers and the quality of the material varies widely.

If you have any questions, additions or corrections, or think you can provide better images and are willing to share them, please contact donald20@msu.edu
