Stained Glass Windows at Rockledge United Methodist Church in Rockledge, GA

     In 2012, Laws Stained Glass Studios installed (9) opalescent glass windows at Rockledge United Methodist Church in Rockledge, GA.  The six main windows (size 36" wide x 92" high) each contained a 18" x 26" hand-stained glass medallion with a scene from the "Life of Christ", but no memorial plate.  The two smaller windows (size 24" wide  x 70" high) had a one-piece, medallion-shaped scene from the "Life of Christ" and a memorial plate.  The transom (size 60" wide x 20" high) did not have artwork or a memorial plate.  

     The church had wood sash windows with clear glass on the inside, and on the outside, they had installed Krinkle glass (a thin, somewhat transparent fiberglass).  Laws began the installation by removing the existing wood sashes and installing the new leaded window into the existing wood frame.  The outside wood perimeter of the frame was covered with white aluminum flashing.  On the outside and on top of the new flashing, Laws installed 1/4" Lucite as the protective covering.
