in the relatively warm nook, I had thought that a “double” glass

thickness – in other words the thickest window glass – was solid enough, but

Fridtjof Andersen as a skilled builder would be able to give the best

advice, whether mirror glass were required; – the thickest “ham-

mered” glass would also suffice, – but I would prefer

to see through the pane, if I were to paint something outside (for ex-

ample snow), – but I have a smaller window, which can be used

to that end, so I guess we can say “hammered” glass, – but of the thickest type –

and without encased thread (metal wire). For the roof window I would also

like to know the price and the most appropriate length, when the width

is one m. (the length can even be much shorter than the width –

for example 1/2 m. or 60 cm., etc.) in “hammered” glass is perfectly

suitable here, but when I mentioned this question about the dimension

in relation to the specified 1 m. width, it was because I thought

you probably might find the glass from Didr. Andersen most advantageous,

when they were able to decide the size of one of the lengths; – for ex-

ample if there are glass panes in storage with the dimensions 1.50 x 2.00 m.,

then one would get 4 panes at 1 m. x 75 cm; – or if the original

size was 1 m. x 2 m. then one would get 4 panes of 1 m. x 50 cm. They can

also be a little longer than the width – for example 1 m. x 1.25 m. though preferably shorter.

If you can at the same time obtain a little delay in payment that would

be good – I can send in woodcuts for framing and sale in the

shop, so that one would then have the possibility of deducting instalments from these.

Well forgive me for bothering you – everyone here sends their greetings

including Fond. Your devoted Astrup

P.S. The roof windows can have different lengths, (^{arbitrary lengths)} but always 1 m. wide.
