This pair of windows were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for the J.J. Walser, Jr. House, Chicago, Illinois, circa 1903 and not for the Heath residence as stated in the catalogue.

Familiar with the architectural schemes of Frank Lloyd Wright through their association with the Larkin Company, Mr. and Mrs. William Heath commissioned Wright to design a Prairie style house for them just a few blocks away from the Darwin D. Martin complex. The Heath house windows, with their incorporation of a central chevron motif, are similar to those first introduced in the George Barton House (Buffalo, New York, 1903). In the Heath house, Wright develops the pattern further by continuing it across several casements.
