Manufacturer: terra cotta company
Fabulous and unusual pair of terra cotta panel - with nice high relief areas. Both measures 11 3/4" high x 6" wide by 1" thick. The right tile design is a pitcher with flowers coming out of the top - draped with cloth - books are propped up against the bottom left side of the pitcher. The pitcher has a great scene on it - a man sits in a chair, holding a paper or book in his right hand and a woman stands looking down at him. Two children are running around a tree (just to the upper right of the couple).
The left tile design is a lidded cornucopia - the lid has a birds head . The bottom of the cornucopia swirls back up into another birds head with a long beak.
Condition: The left tile has a large chip and crack on the left side (and part of a hairline from this on the back). It also has a top left edge chip. The right tile has a chip on the right edge 3/4 way down. Both have minor traces of mortar. These were obviously de-installed.
Unmarked - circa 1880-1900 - probably American. Truly classic designs. Outstanding if framed. (#T-1771)
