Antique Stained Glass Windows by Tiffany

Tiffany lamps I had heard of - but I didn't know that there is an active market in tiffany stained glass windows.

When I did a little reading on this, I realised that Louis Comfort Tiffany designed stained glass windows and then, noticing that the glass offcuts were still usable, found a way of setting the glass in channel settings which could be formed into shapes such as lampshades. This thrifty approach to business led to the evolution of stunning interior decorative pieces which are also collected today.
