Designed in 1903 for the open balcony where the Mezzanine Gallery Tea Room overlooked the Front Saloon of the Willow Tea Rooms, Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow. Mackintosh has contrasted the decorative motif of the willow leaf in coloured glass surrounded by wrought iron against the pierced squares which were beginning to dominate his decorative vocabulary in 1903-4.
