Description
EXTRAORDINARY ANTIQUE STAINED GLASS WINDOW WITH TIFFANY COMPONENTS
Measures 35" tall 44" wide plus frame. Circa 1920 this large stained glass window says café. With a very interested story behind it. The window came from a Haberdasher, in Jamaica Queens. The back of the store in that date served as a brothel. 3 of the customers of the brothel were employees of Tiffany & Co. When the owner of the store asked them to make a sign to people would know where the brothel was they brought pieces of glass and metal that were left over from Tiffany, and over the period of a week made this café sign for the gentleman. It hung in the window for 15 more yr and has been in storage ever since. The workmanship is no doubt that of Tiffany & Co. But unfortunately is not signed Tiffany. There are several cracks throughout to some of the panels and one panel has a glass loss. Regardless it is still one extraordinary window. If there was any way to get this authenticated by Tiffany & Co. We would. But because the gentleman did it on their own they will not authenticate it.
We will not ship this item. We will happily recommend a list of outside vendors upon request
