Christie's will auction a collection of Tiffany Studios glassworks on December 12 at its Rockefeller Center headquarters, led by works from the collection of literary agent Albert Zuckerman. The star lot is the landscape window "Birches and Irises" (estimate $400,000–$600,000), alongside a daffodil chandelier ($300,000–$500,000) and a tulip floor lamp ($100,000–$150,000). The sale also includes pieces from other private collections, such as a rare landscape floor lamp estimated at $500,000–$700,000.
The auction comes amid a resurgence in the market for Tiffany Studios glass, fueled by recent record sales: a $12.4 million window at Sotheby's in 2024 and a $4.2 million memorial window at Christie's in June. Major museum acquisitions by the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art have further validated the category. This sale tests whether the momentum can sustain high estimates for decorative works from a single collector.
