This antique stained glass window, dating to the early 20th century, comes from Temple Beth El in Springfield, Massachusetts, and carries both artistic and historical significance. The window features a striking composition framed by an arched top with jewel-like glass in shades of green, amber, and cobalt. At the center is a circular medallion with a tree motif, symbolizing growth, strength, and heritage, flanked by stylized foliate elements.
Crafted with a mix of opalescent, textured, and colored glass, the window captures the richness of the Arts & Crafts and early Art Nouveau influences of its time. The surrounding geometric borders, highlighted in shades of blue and amber, balance the organic central imagery with structure and symmetry. Still mounted in its original wooden frame, the piece evokes the craftsmanship of the skilled artisans who created it for a place of worship.
The window remains in nice antique condition, consistent with age and normal use. There are a few stress cracks in the glass but no losses, and the frame shows expected surface wear. The colors remain vivid, and the overall presentation is strong. A rare surviving artifact from Temple Beth El, this stained glass window would be a meaningful addition for collectors of Judaica, stained glass, or historic architectural elements. 63h x 35w x 2d
