Saint Barbara is the patron saint of architects. Her father constructed a tower and imprisoned his daughter within it. To honour the Holy Trinity, Barbara had three windows incorporated into the design. The timber shows some old insect flight holes and we are advised that this piece has been recently treated with Permethrin, as a precaution. -
