Antique German Stove Tile Panel with Musical Cherubs This self framed large panel has a scene with seven cherubs playing musical instruments. There's a cello, several violins, a xylophone, a flute, a horn, and a singer. This is meant to imitate a tropical atmosphere - see the bamboo or palm type vegetation and the beads around the neck of one cherub. The molded design uses an effective combination of low, medium and very high reliefs. Made in Germany, by Mugeln, this was part of a German stove panel, circa 1880 - 1890. There is a factory repaired chip on the right edge, and two very small chips (colored in) on the self framing edge. This has a very attractive medium brown majolica glaze. This large panel measures 16 1/2" long by 9 3/4" wide by just shy of 1" thick. In extremely nice condition. (#T-1505)

Four Tile Cattail Panel by American Encaustic This 4 tile vertical panel was made by the American Encaustic Tiling Company, of Zanesville, Ohio around 1890. Each tile measures 6" square, and is done in a brownish green majolica glaze. The four tiles display nicely together, however note that the pattern on the top and second tiles don't match up exactly. There would have been another tile in the pattern between these. All tiles are in very nice condition, with only the most minor edge wear. There is an extra tile with the set - that is a duplicate of the second tile from the top (for a total of 5 tiles). We have a 3 tile cattail panel in a lime green glaze as well. (#1477)
