Julie and I are passionate about our antiques. After three decades, antique windows still excite us.
We’re still curious, still learning. We will share our knowledge, and, perhaps, our passion with you. So don’t hesitate to ask questions.
It makes us happy to take part in preserving tangible elements of our past. Sharing this joy with others makes us even happier.
We will treat you honestly and fairly.
You will find that we follow through on our promises.
In cases when a window must be repaired, we attempt to keep it as original as possible by using antique repair glass wherever possible.
Our windows are all antiques.
We will not sell reproductions.

When the love of my life, Julie, and I jumped into our passion for antiques and master-glass pieces in the year of 1973, any tangible knowledge about antique glass was highly protected. Though we met with dealers, collectors… anyone who might shed light on the world of refined antique glass, very little light was shed of any value.
We quickly realized that if we wanted to gain any information of value, it was going to come from our personal investment of time and money. So, one weekend in 1973, we traveled the state of Ohio and purchased 108 antique windows. We definitely made some mistakes that weekend. We also started a life long pursuit of experience and knowledge.
Fifty years later, and warehouses of experiences…
Since the beginning of Age of Elegance in 1974, Julie and I have placed more than 8,000 antique windows. Our customer base is all across the country and has grown primarily by word-of-mouth from satisfied customers. This web site, launched in 2005, will help expose more people to antique stained and beveled glass. We will endeavor to continue to post information that will help you understand and appreciate antique glass.
