A window for engagement with a building structure having a window opening, the window is providing a perimeter frame adapted to engage the window opening of the structure. The window has at least one window pane having a window pane perimeter. The window uses multiple perimeter retainer members including an outer perimeter retainer member and an inner perimeter retainer member, the perimeter retainer members typically having opposed substantially flat walls configured to engage the outer pane surface and the inner pane surface, respectively, and perimeter clip member engaging walls. Holding the retainer members are perimeter clip members configured with a first end and a second end, at least the first end adapted to resiliently engage at least one of the perimeter retainer members and a second end to engage the other retainer member so as to maintain the retainers in spaced apart relation with the flat walls thereof flush against walls adjacent the window pane perimeter. There may be resilient sealing members adapted to engage the flat walls of the retainer members to seal the same against the window panes, the perimeter frame adapted to engage the perimeter clip members so as to hold the inner and outer perimeter retainer members fixedly adjacent the frame.

The window of claim 1, wherein the pane is a multiplicity of panes and further comprising muntin members, the muntin members comprising an outer muntin retainer member and an inner muntin retainer member, the muntin retainer members each having a pair of laterally spaced apart, opposed, substantially flat facing walls configured to engage a perimeter of a first pane of the multiplicity of panes and a perimeter of a second adjacent pane of the multiplicity of panes, the outer and inner muntin retainer members including muntin clip engaging walls centrally located between the pair of laterally spaced facing walls; a muntin clip member having a first end and a second end, at least the first end adapted to resiliently engage the muntin clip engaging walls of one of the muntin retainer members and the second end to engage the other of the muntin retainer members so as to maintain the flat facing walls snugly against the inner and outer pane surfaces of the adjacent panes; andresilient sealing members adapted to engage the flat walls of the retainer members to seal the retainer members against the perimeters of the adjacent window panes. 3. The window of claim 2, wherein the second end of the perimeter clip member is integral with one of the perimeter retainer members. 4. The window of claim 2, wherein the first and second ends of the perimeter clip member are adapted to resiliently engage the outer and inner perimeter retainer member. 5. The window of claim 2, wherein the outer and inner perimeter and muntin retainer members are bronze. 6. The window of claim 2, wherein the perimeter frame defines a mulled window having a fixed window and an operating window. 7. The window of claim 2, wherein the substantially flat walls of the perimeter and muntin retainer members include channels adapted to engage the resilient sealing member. 8. The window of claim 2, further including a mounting flange adapted to allow the window to be set in from a face of a support wall, the flange providing a surface to apply waterproof membrane to seal the window. 9. The window of claim 8, further including a trowel guide on the mounting flange. 10. The window of claim 8, further including a caulking channel for application of flexible sealant between the support wall and the perimeter frame. 11. The window of claim 1, further including a setting block that is attachable to an existing wall and to the perimeter clip members.
