Darren Ryan, left, Rena Jarosewitsch, middle, and Fiona Ciaran, who have been restoring the windows of the Provincial Council Chambers in Durham Street. Fiona Ciaran has been restoring the interior painted surface of. the windows with the help of Rena Jarosewitsch, a stainedglass artist. Once the windows are restored, Mr Ryan installs a clear sheet of Lexan to protect the windows against vandalism and the damaging effects of sun and heat. Lexan is a special polycarbonate, which is similar to Perspex. The Victorian grisaille windows are about 120 years old and are among the oldest windows in Christchurch. Work on the windows is almost finished and renovations on the rest of the building are expected to be completed by the end of this month.
