HOMEWORK HELP... Why do people use lead to make stained glass?
Why do/did people use lead to make stained glass windows during the Renaissance and Gothic art period, instead of using copper, brass, iron, bronze, etc...
Because lead is far more malleable than they other metals you mention and could be easily hammered into place to hold the glass. It also weathers much better. That's why it was used for roofing as well. My father once owned a house with a copper roof - whilst it looked pretty it needed replacing after 40 years or so - compare that to lead which lasts for centuries.
