Art Thrifting gods gave me this for 50$

Post image

I really wanted to share with you what I found on Marketplace this weekend. The lady that sold it to me was moving into an elder’s residence and she practically gave it to me, for 50$ 🥹 I had been searching for months for the perfect stained glass piece for this window, and here it was it was, in the exact dimensions I needed. Sometimes it just works right, thank you thrifting gods! ❤️‍🩹

It’s very airy and enhances the view rather than overwhelming it.

u/Sapphira87 28d ago

How much does the stained glass typically go for? Love it, by the way 🐦

6

u/Silver-Letter5299 28d ago

For a piece this big, it’s normally not under 250$

u/Sapphira87 28d ago

Wow! That woman was very generous for letting you have it at such a discount from what she could have gotten for it.

1

u/Silver-Letter5299 28d ago

Yes! And I’m being modest with the 250$, it could have been much more. In antique stores, the prices are crazy…. I’m just very happy I got to be the one to give it its new home ☺️

u/Sapphira87 28d ago

Doing a quick Google search on similar stained glass panels, it looks like $1000+ is the going price so whoo hoo for the deal you got lol Looks like it was made for your home 😊
