Would it be Window-with- colour- glass- Charles?, so that they know we are talking about a window?.
Just a thought,
Tini.

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.

Hi Jeni,
what is needed is a description of your handshape and kind of movement in words as accurately as possible (with words) Once I get an idea about what you are doing while you are performing the sign I volunteer to assist you in writing this "action" in SW
All the best
Stefan ;-))
