Four spectacular stained glass domes built in Brighouse are set to grace a luxury home in the Middle East.

Design Glass Ltd, based at Albion Mill, Thornhill Beck Lane, was commissioned to manufacture two six-metre diameter ceiling domes and two further glass structures measuring six-metres by 11 metres for the wealthy unnamed client.

The four pieces – the latter two to be fitted above an indoor swimming pool – are set to be shipped out in August.

Managing director Dave Morris said: “We got an enquiry a couple of years ago from the Middle East. A guy flew over and we showed him around and we began working with an interior designer based in London.

“It was a long process of having the steel structures made by Halifax Ironworks at Sowerby Bridge, making moulds and creating samples.

“It has taken us 18 months to make all four domes. It has kept us busy and it has been good experience for our apprentices.”

Mr Morris said: “We believe that taking the four domes together, this is the biggest stained glass dome project in the world.”

He said the contract could be the first of several from the Middle East following its link-up with an agent in the region, saying: “We have already had enquiries about similar work for the future.”
