The largest single pane window that I am aware of was the 1x6x5, which had
a very limited production in only 4 colors - blue, yellow, brown and gray.
Since it was used in the 80’s and 90’s, the mold is probably retired today.

i saw that but dismissed it for some reason. Is it glazed? Do you know what
the reasoning behind the grooves was?
Thanks

Yes those 1x6x5 windows have a glass insert. They are similar to the glass
inserts in the 1x4x3 windows that can be opened and closed vertically. I
don’t know why they have those groves around the perimeter. But it makes
them “not compatible” in use with the 1x4x5 windows which have a smooth
perimeter surface. These windows are rare in all colors (yellow, brown, gray)
except blue. And because most of the blue ones come from space sets, they
come mostly with the trans-yellow glass.

One reason for the grooves is to fit the awning piece

and the windowsill piece
