CNN —A stained-glass Tiffany window originally designed for an Ohio church has sold for $12.48 million at auction.
This is the first time the window has come to auction in 24 years and the sale sets a new auction record for Tiffany Studios.
It sold for $2 million back in 2000, which was a world record for a Tiffany window at that time.
That was the “thematic precursor” for the Danner Memorial Window 10 years later, Sotheby’s said in a press statement.
The museum acquired Garden Landscape, designed in 1912, a three-part window designed by Northrop, last year.
