Edwardian

Era Doors

Changing History.

In the turn of the century, we witnessed a massive change in front door design. Unlike their predecessors, Victorian doors, Edwardian doors are characterised by elegant, balanced designs that combine practicality with decorative detail. They often use natural timber, glazed panels and raised mouldings, with symmetrical layouts that give the entrance a refined appearance.

Decorative glass, such as stained or patterned glazing, was also common and helped create a sense of light and openness. Today, Edwardian era doors are praised for their sophisticated and detailed style, intricate craftsmanship and playful ornamentation.

We’re delighted to have worked alongside our longtime collaborator, Annahita Hessami, on so many of our Edwardian glass designs. Her craftsmanship is unmatched and truly brings these doors to life. The stained glass design process is entirely personal and unique to each project. For this reason, Annahita liaises with each client individually, working closely with them to bring their vision to life and create a design that feels truly at home in the property.

If you’re interested in bespoke, unparalleled stained glass—one-of-a-kind and tailor-made for your home—we’d be delighted to connect you with our designer. Together, we can create a front door that feels entirely yours and brings your dream design to life.

Uniquely Yours.

Edwardian doors are highly sought after for their versatility and customisation. This playful style can incorporate up to five glass panels within the door, with the option to add a further five panels across the sidelights and fanlight, depending on your entryway. If you’re looking for an entrance that makes a statement while retaining a traditional character, this could be the style for you.

Edwardian properties can often be difficult to distinguish from their Victorian counterparts, but they are typically characterised by wider windows, lighter proportions and more decorative joinery. These details may also be visible inside the home through features such as mouldings, dado rails and other original woodwork. We always encourage researching your property before making changes, particularly if you’re looking to restore its traditional character.

We’re here to help you reinstate your home’s original appearance and celebrate the details that make it unique.
