Stained Glass Roundel of the Royal Institute of British Architects

About the Item

A late 19th century stained glass roundel detailed with the crest of The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). The Institute was established in 1834 and remains to this day a symbol of excellence and professionalism in architecture. Formerly ‘Institutes of British Architects in London’, the organisation was awarded its Royal Charter in 1837 under King William IV. The group later dropped the reference to London in 1892. Over the years, the RIBA crest has remained much the same. It is considered to be inspired by the 13th century stone Lion Gate in Mycenae, Greece, depicting a pair of rampant lions between a column marked with chevrons. The Latin inscription reads “Usui Civium, Decori Urbium” translating to “for the use of the people, for the glory of the city”. The RIBA crest is depicted here in beautiful colours and detail, celebrating the prominence of the organisation’s historical crest. This stained glass roundel is in good condition with a couple of fine, faint cracks. Read the report for full details of condition.
