Stained Glass Windows at Black Oak Baptist Church in Oneida, TN

In 2012, Laws Stained Glass Studios installed (20) opalescent glass windows at Black Oak Baptist Church in Oneida, TN. The twenty sanctuary windows (size 38" wide by 85" high) each had a 12" round hand-stained symbol. They did not have a memorial plate. The church was building a new sanctuary and so all of the windows received new white aluminum frames. Eight of the windows are interior windows which did not receive protective covering. The other twelve received 1/4" Lucite acrylic as the protective covering on the outside.

New white aluminum frames set into the stud openings. The contractor covers the frames with plastic to protect them while the masons lay the brick to them.

In this picture you can see an exterior window and an interior window.
