  Want to use them in an exterior window. Do I encase them between regular glass to protect them and for better insulation?

If you have the windows, any good window glass company should be able to install them.
If you are looking for antique glass, architectural recyclers recover them from buildings being torn down or remodeled. I have even seen lots of recovered ones from Habitat for Humanity Restore here in town. Ebay also... http://www.ebay.com/bhp/leaded-glass-window and also Etsy... https://www.etsy.com/market/leaded_glass_window
If you are looking for some replica antique glass, I would contact a local stain glass person to make you some leaded glass windows.
