windows with small panes

´Sprosser´ can refer to bars, mullions and transoms, or even to leaded cames.

I think the nearest you can get is small-paned windows or windows with small panes.

Compare the pictures you get by googling ´småsprossede vinduer´ and ´small-paned windows.´

The term might also apply to leaded windows (pronounced ledded, from the metal lead).
Here the small panes are held together by lead cames
-- and the word IS spelt cames, so ignore the spelling checker...

Again, google for pictures.
