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.  We completed general restoration work and protective covering with our US patented aluminum vented frames, designed for the preservation of stained glass windows, for all 61 stained glass windows.
