19th C. American Arts and Crafts Ceramic Tile |
||||
|
||||
This tile is glazed with two-colors and is a very lovely floral and geometric design, which is very finely detailed. In this particular tile, there is a gradation from light to dark in the design, darker where the glaze is thicker, and lighter where the glaze is thinner, adding much depth and visual interest. It is in very good condition. It has a 1 1/2 inch long pre-glaze chip along one of the edges which is covered in glaze so is not very visible. This tile is unmarked and has a series of concentric circles in relief on the back. It appears to have at one time been installed in a building and has been carefully removed without any damage to the tile. It is 6 inches square and 3/8 inches thick. This collection of tiles, da02, da03, da04 and da05 were all acquired in the Midwest, in Wisconsin, where there are many Arts and Crafts houses and buildings from which these tiles could have been salvaged.
