$375.00
Quantity available: 1
Rare set of three original, antique art nouveau/jugendstil tiles from the German manufacturer, Norddeutsche Steingutfabrik (N.S.T.G.), Grohn, c. 1890-1910. The condition of the tiles, from left to right/1st photo to 3rd, is: Tile #1 has an underglaze shatter-crack which resulted from the firing of the tile, running from the top downward toward the left, that is visible but not distracting; I don't believe this tile was ever installed; it has a bright glossy surface with no nicks or wear. Tile #2 was installed and has some wear to the high points of the surface, mainly at the frothy crests of the waves; it also has light crazing; Tile #3 also has a very slight shatter crack from the kiln firing that also runs about .25" down from the top center of the tile under the glaze; it has a light upper right corner nick and another at bottom edge toward right; this tile was never installed. The tiles are finished in a beautiful strong palette and the design has a great sense of movement. They would be terrific framed or installed with other field tile around them. Please write with any questions you may have.
