More than 900 items from the hit show were up for grabs, including an “original touring Iron Throne molded from the original screen-used throne,” which fetched $1.49 million.

The company added that the throne was “painted plastic embellished with jewels to look like a dragon-forged chair made of ‘the swords of the vanquished, a thousand of them, melted together like so many candles.’ "

The outfit Jon Snow wore for his “Beyond the Wall” trip in season 7 also fetched $137,500, “partly because it also came with a lighter ‘action’ version of Longclaw,” per the release.

A “third hard-rubber ‘action’ iteration of the iconic sword” nabbed $106,250, while Harington’s character’s famous Night’s Watch ensemble went for $337,500, the auction house confirmed.
