The character is what makes this roundel so endearing. At its centre sits a playful boy perched atop a barrel of wine, a charming little scene of continental festivity, captioned with a German inscription that translates as “Drinks Wine from Stone.” It’s the kind of storytelling detail that turns a window into a conversation piece. Dating from the 1930s and salvaged from a historic Los Angeles building, this is a genuine period roundel rather than a modern reproduction, its vivid blues set against other rich colours for real visual punch. Believed to originate in Germany on account of its language and style, it illustrates the decorative traditions of early 20th-century European glasswork. In good original condition for its age, it suits Gothic, Tudor, Spanish or storybook-style interiors and would serve as both a striking feature and a lasting example of the glassmaker’s art.
