Unknown Tile Maker, Portugal   Circa 1900

This listing is for ONE TILE.   Measures 5 1/8" x 5 1/8" x 1/4" thick.    Smooth satiny finish.  Very good condition with small  edge chips/minor wear.

Lovely Delft-style glossy antique tiles from Portugal, over 100 years old.  Made using the flow blue process, the cobalt blue blurs during firing by adding lime and/or ammonium chloride to the kiln.  The intensity of the “flow” varies, and can be seen in the photo.   Last 3 photos show design ideas we put together with our many blue and white Portuguese tiles.  If interested, let us know-will be glad to help!

We have a very large quantity (over 1000 pcs) for a variety of projects.    Sold separately in any quantity.      We have this pattern in larger sizes also:   5 1/4", 5 1/2" and 5 3/4".   Have glossy and matte finish.
