A massive compound gothic frame has been custom built with a thermal-barrier aluminum frame with Bovard Studio’s US patented ventilation system designed for the preservation of stained glass windows and installed for Lisbon United Methodist Church in Iowa.

Restoring, Protecting, Illuminating: Window Preservation for St. Andrews
The grand rose window of St. Andrews in Roanoke, VA was obscured by rectangular mullions that interfered with the circular design of the window. Bovard studio replaced the frame and yellowing covering with a new protective covering that allows for the underlying window to shine through. With history dating back to 1902, our Studio’s careful attention to detail allows for this structure to be seen as it was originally intended.
