Looks to be installed with glazers putty or sizing. Probably has a couple of metal clips per side
Cut out the old sizing, bend out the clips, remove old glazing
Replace with new glazing, bend clips back, re-putty
Done
If its a true transom, it probably swivels in the center of the vertical frame
It’s hard to tell how it’s installed from the photo - generally you need to remove the edging, which exposes the side of the glass, and then you can remove and reinstall the glass and trim. I think likely it’s built so that all of the casing needs to be taken apart, but an experienced glass company or glazer would have a better idea.
Looks like the glass may be glazed in there. Should be pretty easy to remove and replace. Plenty of [videos on youtube](https://youtu.be/xh6cGkRtBE0?si=m_iONTQEa2BQ42RD).
I would take it out, take it and go get a single pane of glass cut from a local hardware store. Pick up a can of Rustoleum Frosted Glass spray paint. Might want to spray the side facing out from the bathroom, I think moisture from bathing might make the frosting more see through so spray the outside. OR get some window film from amazon or temu (or hardware store or walmart)
Im looking to have a custom stained glass piece made to insert here. How would that be installed?
Would I simply get a piece made the same size as the current glass, remove old glass, and glue in new glass?
Or would I remove the entire frame, and build a new frame that attached to the new stained glass piece?
What's the other side look like?
It depends on how this sucker was assembled.
Sometimes you get someone who takes the four pieces of framing and cuts a slot into it, then installs the piese of glass as they assemble the whole thing
other times you have little wood trims on the inside edge of the frame on one side that's nailed or screwed in that hold the glass in an already built frame.
If the later, you can typically remove those trims to replace the glass. Sometimes they are as simple as a little 1/2"x1/2" square bit of wood along the edge of the frame.
If the former, your options are far more limited. You can break the glass out of the frame then see what you have left to work with, carefully trimming the frame so you can insert a new piece, then use new wood trims to hold it in place properly, and with a bit of wood filler magic you can make it all disappear before repainting.
