<p>[QUOTE=&quot;moreotherstuff, post: 3907401, member: 56&quot;]There is a stained glass technique called &quot;plating&quot;.&nbsp; That&#039;s where you get the color or effect desired by using two or more pieces of glass cut to the same size and shape and stacked together.&nbsp; That may explain the double thickness in the green areas - the decoration painted on clear glass backed by another piece of glass stained green.</p><p><br /></p><p>If true, the backing piece of glass would have had to be stained green (as opposed to green throughout) to allow the staining to be scraped away for that sword hilt.</p><p><br /></p><p>So long as the colors are fired-on, it&#039;s stained glass.&nbsp; You don&#039;t think of reverse painted glass as stained glass, and there are modern pieces colored with a transparent acrylic coating that I don&#039;t think fill the bill.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
