Yes, we’re men. Yes, we climb up scaffolding as nimbly as gazelles. But we’re also Sensitive Souls.
We don’t just design and make huge sets of stained glass windows for a sprawling 18th century mansion on the shores of Lake Geneva.
We also paint the small, delicate and lovely things in Life.
And, with Valentine’s Day fast approaching, we thought we’d reveal our gentler side …
So we scratched our heads and thought about this for some weeks.
And then we reckoned the very best thing to do would be to show you how we designed and painted some stained glass flowers.
Designed to reveal our gentler side, we called this short and emotional video “The Sensitivity of Cyrano de Bergerac”. (You’ll need Flash, as well as a good supply of popcorn, to enjoy it properly.)
So you see:
at Williams & Byrne, we have …
“The Sensitivity of Cyrano without the Nose”

Hi Guys!
Even though I’m not a stained glass painter, I thoroughly enjoy reading your newletters.
I’m sorry we couldn’t make it to see you when we were in the UK this last trip, but time just got away from us.
Kind regards,
Marie from South Africa
Hi Marie,
Thanks for your message – it’s lovely to hear from you. I know you met David when you visited a few years ago, and maybe sometime I’ll also get to meet you.
In the meantime, we’ll of course keep writing.
And, as with the leaded window that you asked us about last November, when you have questions, please just send an e-mail, and we will always pass on the best information that we have.
Our best wishes,
Stephen
