Roundels are single sheets of glass, usually circular, that are painted with a self-contained design, and which are often associated with medieval glass from the low countries. This comprehensive and richly illustrated studey shows that large numbers of roundels were produced in England between the late thirteenth century and the mid sixteenth centuries and still survive in churches, secular and civic buildings.
