toffee hammered (suffrage window)

The window I started over a year ago now is almost complete. I have finally found an appropriate 1900's toffee hammer to be the finishing touch to this window about the more extreme aspects of the fight for women's votes. Window smashing was a key activity at the time with Westminster being targeted most often. To reflect this I smashed some of the panels in my window and will attach the hammer from the bottom. This with any luck will resemble a emergence call point. 

The smashed panels are coated in Matt cote to preserve they're structure.
