Sacred Heart Stained Glass Mosaic 16 cm

Here is a magnificent collection of reproductions of the most beautiful elements from the Basilica of the Sacré-Cœur in Montmartre, created by a master craftsman using hand-painted glass. These can be hung on a window with the provided suction cup.

This mini-stained glass is a faithful reproduction of the mosaic 'Christ in Glory' from the basilica. Inaugurated in 1923, this chancel mosaic, covering 475 m2, is one of the largest mosaics in the world. It represents the resurrected Christ, dressed in white, arms wide open, revealing a golden heart. Surrounding Him, at different scales, is a whole world of worshipers, including the patron saints of France: in the large scale, the Virgin Mary and Saint Michael, Saint Joan of Arc, and France personified offering her crown, and Pope Leo XIII offering the world.

A high-quality artisanal work!

This stained glass was specially designed and created for the Sacré-Cœur of Montmartre by a master craftsman based near the Scottish border. These artisans, inspired by stained glass, design and produce miniature versions of the magnificent stained glass windows from cathedrals, museums, and churches to decorate your windows. They continue their craftsmanship today, hoping to maintain interest in stained glass, especially the antique stained glass, and to contribute to the funds for the maintenance and preservation of cathedrals, abbeys, and churches, wherever they are located.

Assembled by hand, these faithful reproductions of the stained glass windows of the Basilica of the Sacré-Cœur in Montmartre are specially designed and executed for us.

This mini-stained glass is a glass decoration intended to be hung on a house window. It is recommended to apply a layer of egg white on the back of the window suction cups to prevent them from drying out. Strong and constant sunlight should be avoided. The stained glass windows have a thickness of 7 mm, including the edges.
