I came across some examples of Medieval windows made with the "cives" 
technique ("fenêtre à cives") and thought that it would be interesting 
to experiment a bit with the concept. This is just a test scene, using 
photons of course. Very promising

A bit of documentation:

OMG, "Buzenscheiben", I've had to recreate and colourise those many times 
for printing on self adhesive window films.

LOL Indeed, that is where those are mostly found nowadays.

To all: What are those windows called in other languages?

In dutch, rondglas, maanglas or schijvenglas for the butzen and 
cylinderglas or kroonglas for the method where they first make a cilinder 
and then cut it open.

In German, it is Butzenglas, Batzenscheibe, Nabelscheibe or Ochsenauge. 
I modelled it some years ago with wings 3d, but never posted the code 
(mesh) and the macros to produce windows from it. If someone is 
interested, I will clean up the code a little bit and post it.

Beste regard

According to Wikipedia its English name is crown glass:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_glass_(window)

I find Wikipedia useful for finding names for things in other languages.

If one reads the article above in the available languages;
German, English, French, Dutch, Polish, Czech, Pashto
(See the Languages links at the bottom of the left menu.)

- one can find names for crown glass in these languages.

Obvious! I regularly use this but somehow failed to apply it to the 
present topic! ;-/

Interesting! I modelled the glass in Silo and am currently writing 
macros for the different types of windows. I certainly shall continue 
till completion, but I would be curious to compare eventually. So, yes, 
please?

A nice work, Thomas.
Sometimes you find also the circles arranged to fit the available space 
(like these pictures taken near Bolzano in Italy).

Yes indeed. I am currently working on these now, also on the variations 
of tints within one window.

It started as a small testing project, just for the fun of it, and 
before I knew, it grew into a full-fledged project. :-)
