What is the difference between “Leaded Glass”, “Stained Glass” and “Beveled Glass?
Many terms are used interchangably in referring to art glass work, although some are specific, such as: “Leaded” or “stained” glass are generic terms use to refer to a wide variety of applications. In general, they both refer to pieces of colored glass (or clear, at times) assembled through the use of lead “cames” (channeling) or solder (applied over copper foil). “Beveled glass” is specific and refers to “The Waterford Look.” This style of art glass typically has no color and involves the use of heavy plate glass which has had the edges of individual pieces beveled.
