Comments: Octagonal Star Window

This is beautiful!

But I see hexagonal stars.

Wowza. That's gorgeous.

Thanks so much! This is probably my favorite.

Hmmm. Well, I think the hexagonal star you're seeing, all in clear glass, is actually the intersection of the two octagonal stars (in dark blue and green). I thought the hexagonal star was kind of a cool consequence of superimposing the two octagrams so I left it colorless to emphasize its shape.

I've thought about doing a series of these where I used the same pattern, but different colorings to bring different shapes out, but that'll have to wait until I once again have the space and tools to make leaded glass.
