W207 1:48 Triple Casement Window

ID# W207

 

A 1/48th scale triple six pane casement window.

 

Casement windows have been used since the 17th century with the segmental arch of brickwork above the window introduced in the 1690s. The windows could be flush with the surface of the wall but are more likely to be recessed within the window aperture by 3-4" (1/16" or 1.5mm in 1/48 scale). The London Building Act of 1709 required the windows to be recessed by 4" to prevent the spread of fire and other towns and cities adopted similar rules.

 

The model window is supplied partly assembled to make it easier to paint. The window can be fitted flush in a 3mm thick wall or recessed in a 6mm wall.

 

Size: 1.8" (47mm) W x 1.35" (34mm) H
