I think the question here is, "I don't know the sign for "glass" as in Stained Glass Window".  If one doesn't know the sign, one can't describe it.  I think she's asking for help from native ASL users who do know the sign and could post it.  The only one I know is "mirror" which holds the palm to the face and turns it as if catching the light once.  My SW is down or I'd post it.
I went to one browser and this is the best description.  It's the one I have seen used.GLASS
The bent index finger taps the upper front teeth as if to show that something is hard. so COLOR-GLASS-WINDOW would be the best, I would think.
