The front is in fine, undamaged condition with a vibrant deep gloss. The back is exceptionally clean (virtually free of old cement or mortar residues) and shows the characteristic waffle pattern in the clay. Description of the object: A beautifully preserved antique wall tile from the heyday of Jugendstil. The design features a crisp, geometric grid of lines in deep blue and soft green against a warm ivory background. Thanks to the relief lines, the pattern sits visually nicely on top of the surface. The back bears the original factory number in the bottom right and is, thanks to its clean condition, ready to be re-framed or displayed. A stylish and collectible object with a sleek, modernist aesthetic that fits seamlessly with both a classical and a contemporary interior. Romantic Antique Art Nouveau / Jugendstil Flower Tile – Rosette Motif (ca. 1900–1910) Country of origin: Germany / Europe Manufacturer: Made in the tradition of renowned factories such as Golem GmbH (model F11) and Villeroy & Boch Dating: Around 1900–1910 Material: Glazed relief earthenware with fine patina craquelé Dimensions: 15 cm x 15 cm Weight: 480 grams Condition: Romantic antique condition with a beautifully aged craquelé in the glaze and a fresh, natural color scheme of cream-white with soft green. Description of the object: A charming and highly decorative antique tile with a central floral motif (rosette), surrounded by diagonal, wavy 'whip-lash' lines (coup de fouet), which is the quintessential feature of the organic Art Nouveau style. This particular pattern was designed at the time so that four tiles formed a larger, continuous circular motif. Loose specimens like this are beloved collectibles for their refined iconography and fresh, natural color palette. A wonderful piece to place in a tile holder or stylishly install on the wall. Both lots are packed with the utmost care and professional materials and sent by insured/registered mail. ps The last 2 photos were created with the help of AI to capture mood, and the plastic holder is used for photography purposes and is not included
