A pair of dirty windows bought on Facebook for less than £5,000 are set to sell for £200,000. Antiques hunter Paul Brown paid £4,800 for various items from a church set for demolition.
The salvage included the stained glass windows - which were discovered to be made by noted company Tiffany. Auctioneers Freeman's say the sale marks the first time a Tiffany Studios rose window has ever been offered at auction.
The company explain the twin roses of St. Paul were likely commissioned around 1904, completed in 1906, and supported in part by master merchant John Wanamaker, owner of the eponymous Philadelphia department store.
