This beautiful window with outstanding brilliant colors was restored by Ancient Arts after being hit by a ball during school
recess at St. Paul the Apostle in Westwood. The window depicts

of Los Angeles along with his motto, Miserere Mei Deus, God Have Mercy on Me.

Visitation Church, Los Angeles, CA
RESTORATION IN THE MARION CHAPEL AT VISITATION CHURCH
Located in the Marion Chapel of Visitation Church facing the schoolyard,
this exquisite stained glass panel was unfortunately struck by a ball and the elaborate center was broken.
Ancient Arts owner, Mark Schoem, had worked with Visitation Church
many times over the years and we were called again when this unfortunate
incident occurred. Because of the shape of the center image the entire
intricate small panel of 58 pieces had to be completely disassembled in
order to incorporate the replacement piece. Once the best replacement
glass was located, the blue center piece required etching, staining,
painting and firing in order to match the original as closely as
possible. The panel was successfully re-installed in January, 2017 |
Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church, El Monte, CA, 2015
OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE, EL MONTE, CA
Extensive stained glass repairs and restorations were carried out for Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church over a two month period between October
and December of 2015. Of the eleven large stained glass windows in the Sanctuary, three were repaired in place. Seven panels requiring
more extensive restoration, including one requiring the replacement of a missing inscription were removed to our studio in San Pedro.
Replacement glass was located to match the missing and broken pieces as closely as possible. It was a pleasure working with Fr. William Rodriguez and
his dedicated staff.

NORBERTINE SISTERS, WILMINGTON, CA
The Norbertine Sisters have a chapel in their Convent in Wilmington with three stained glass windows. The Sisters were
having a big problem with the Chapel being excessively hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Our project consisted
of providing new window frames with room for stained glass on the inside and energy conserving low-e glass on the outside.
Each window had to be re-configured to fit in the new frames.
