Windows designed and manufactured by Louis Comfort Tiffany used larger pieces of glass, unique coloration processes and less leading than traditional styles of stained glass. Some of the shading is achieved by varying the thickness of the glass or by building up various colors of glass. The glass is translucent and light shines through the design, illuminating the picture like a color slide. Unlike ordinary stained glass, the picture in a Tiffany window is visible even though no light shines through, although the scene is quite different in character and appearance.
