I don't think this is original, and was most likely added quite a bit later, however, I'm not seen a similar design elsewhere in the city.

A rather impressive ornamental crest in the opulent boardroom of J.J. Burnet's 1880s Clyde Navigation Trust building on Robertson Street in Glasgow.

Acid-etched glass often gets overlooked in favour of the more colourful stained or painted glass, but it can be just as decorative, as this example from a townhouse door on Wilton Street in the West End of Glasgow shows.

I love the wonderfully expressive crouching Atlantids carved by George Frampton on J.J. Burnet's 1890s Banking Hall on Ingram Street in Glasgow.

A rather beautiful metalwork lamp on Carlton Place in Glasgow. Carlton Place is Glasgow's best surviving Georgian street, but it has been neglected for many years as is in a sad state of repair.

If you zoom in, the pattern on the lower tiles does rather look, to me at any rate, like a strange crested bird with wild eyes, but there's nothing wrong with that!

The Fish with the Ring in its Mouth on the shutters of St Mungo Museum of Religious Life and Art in Glasgow. This is one of the four symbols of Glasgow featured on its coat of arms, and it's also a lovely bit of metalwork!

Some rather beautiful hexagonal stained glass in the door of St Mary's Roman Catholic Church on Abercromby Street in Glasgow. This church was designed by Goldie and Child of London and built in the 1840s.

Every angle counts. Lexus engineers even sculpt the rear of our vehicles to optimize airflow, enhancing stability and efficiency for a remarkably smooth drive.

Love these door pulls on the 1890s former Sun Life Building on West George Street in Glasgow, especially the little putti clinging on to them!

Love the way this house number has been done on one of the ealy 1900s townhouses on Lowther Terrace in the west of Glasgow. It's nicely in keeping with the style of the rest of the building.

What I'm presuming is an original, and rather beautiful, acid-etched window design on the former Garnethill branch of the Glasgow Savings Bank on New City Road. It was created by Neil C. Duff and was built in 1909.
