4 inch Clear Stained Glass Rondels Hand Spun
Secure a studio-ready supply of premium Glass Rondels with this professional 10-piece bulk set. Designed specifically for artists who demand the character of authentic, hand-spun glass, these 4-inch clear discs offer the perfect blend of traditional soul and modern sizing consistency.
While technically known as rondels, these discs are frequently sought after by designers as “clear glass bottle bottoms” or “bullseye glass bottoms” to add a vintage, architectural feel to transoms and cabinets.
- Project Scale Ready: A 10-piece set provides enough glass for large-scale commissions or multiple smaller projects.
- Authentic Spun Texture: Features natural “seeds” (tiny bubbles) and flow lines that factory-pressed glass lacks.
- Studio Value: Buying in bulk eliminates the high per-piece cost of single artisan rondels.
Clear Hand Spun Rondels for Stained Glass Projects
Successful glasswork relies on the quality of your base materials. Our hand-spun rondels are essential Stained Glass Supplies for those creating transoms, sidelights, or intricate suncatchers. Because these are hand-crafted, they feature the light-catching concentric ripples and genuine punty marks that define high-end leaded glass art.
These hand spun rondels offer the same classic aesthetic as traditional handblown glass rondels but are crafted to maintain a flatter profile for easier foiling.
Seamless Compatibility with Bullseye Glass and Lead Came
Experienced crafters know that mixing glass types requires precision. These rondels are designed to work harmoniously alongside specialty sheets like Bullseye Glass, providing a crystal-clear focal point that doesn’t distract from your color palette. With a standard 1/8 inch thickness, they fit effortlessly into standard lead came or copper foil channels. This makes them an excellent choice for repairs or new commissions using standard 7/32″ foil.
Working with Your 10 Piece Rondel Set
Layout Efficiency: Having 10 matching pieces allows for perfect symmetry in larger window designs or consistent results across a limited-edition series.
Lead and Foil Tips: For the most professional finish, we recommend using 7/32″ copper foil to accommodate the slight thickness variations inherent in hand-spun glass.
Light Play: Position these rondels at eye level in your projects to take full advantage of the way the “spun” center catches and moves the light throughout the day.
The Artisan Advantage of Hand Spun Glass
In a world of mass-produced components, a Hand Spun Rondel stands out. Each disc in this 10-piece set is individually made, ensuring that no two pieces are identical while maintaining the 4-inch (100mm) diameter required for your patterns.
- Fire Polished Edges: Smooth, rounded rims that reduce the need for grinding and prevent foil tearing.
- Optic Clarity: Pure clear glass that refracts sunlight without the muddy green tints found in cheaper alternatives.
- Versatile Application: Ideal for Victorian restoration, modern geometric panels, or circular “bullseye” window inserts.
