AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

These are 2 original antique Art Nouveau tiles made circa 1900. The decoration is in relief applied by means of the dust-pressed technique, in which clay powder is compacted under high pressure into a mold. The upper tile with a dragonfly is made in Germany at a factory in Meissen. The condition is good, but in the top-left corner there is a larger defect visible that has been greened. The dimensions of this tile are 14.8 x 7.4 cm. The lower tile with floral decoration is made in England, probably at Maw. The tile measures 15.2 x 7.5 cm and is in good condition with only a few small glaze chips in the bottom-left corner.
I pack the tile(s) with great care. I ship my packages with PostNL, all packages with a track & trace number.

Seller's Story

I have been trading antique tiles for almost 20 years. I sell medieval lead glazed floor tiles. Italian, Spanish and Portuguese tiles from the fourteenth to the eighteenth century. Dutch tiles from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, as well as tiles from the Art Nouveau and Art Deco period. I sell at special tile fairs in Germany and England, through Catawiki and eBay and through my website.
