At Amber Dragons, Christine Saunders’ Moth Chasing stained glass panel offers a playful, nature-inspired scene. Handmade using traditional leaded stained glass techniques, the artwork depicts two foxes playing in a moonlit field of toadstools while chasing moths beneath the glowing moon.

The original panel measured 16.5 × 12.5 inches and was listed at £180 when this article was first published.

Why the Moth Chasing Stained Glass Panel Stands Out

Designed for wildlife and nature lovers, Moth Chasing combines character, colour and storytelling in one decorative panel.

  • Original handmade design: The panel was individually made by Christine rather than produced from a mass-market template.
  • Traditional leaded construction: The lead lines provide strength while defining the moonlit scene.
  • Nature-inspired detail: Foxes, moths, toadstools and the moon bring woodland charm to the composition.
  • Designed for natural light: The colours and textures become especially expressive when displayed near a window.

How to Care for a Stained Glass Panel

Thoughtful care helps a stained glass panel retain its beauty for years.

  • Remove dust gently with a soft, dry cloth.
  • If necessary, use a lightly dampened cloth with a small amount of mild soap.
  • Avoid abrasive pads, harsh chemicals and excessive pressure.
  • Support the panel securely and follow suitable hanging guidance for its weight and location.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the panel suitable for outdoor use?

The original guidance recommended indoor display. A sheltered location may offer some protection, but stained glass artwork should not be exposed to severe weather or unsafe temperature changes.

Can a similar panel be commissioned?

Christine welcomes bespoke enquiries. The subject, size, colours and individual details can be discussed so a new commission reflects the customer’s own idea rather than duplicating an existing artwork.

How is stained glass prepared for delivery?

Amber Dragons carefully packages stained glass pieces to help protect them in transit. Delivery arrangements depend on the size, destination and nature of the artwork.

Is installation difficult?

The appropriate display method depends on the panel and its intended position. Customers should make certain that fittings and supports are suitable for the artwork’s dimensions and weight.

Why Stained Glass Panels Make Memorable Gifts

Handmade stained glass offers a combination of artistry and personal meaning that is difficult to achieve with mass-produced décor. A wildlife panel can make a thoughtful gift for a birthday, anniversary, house move or another special occasion.

It can be displayed in a window, against a light source or as part of a wider decorative arrangement, allowing the artwork to change as the daylight changes.

A Characterful Piece for the Home

Moth Chasing is more than a decorative panel: it tells a small woodland story. The foxes, moon, moths and toadstools create a scene that feels both magical and rooted in nature.
