antique bisque porcelain tile with the mark 'BBB' on the back -- found in a wood frame originally backed with a paper seal of the legendary Richard Ginori Porcelain Co. of Italy -- the obverse has a beautifully hand painted view of a stream running through an Alpine forest -- not signed -- the tile measures 6 by 6 in. [15x15 cm] app. 1/16 in. thick [very thin] - the thick gilded wood frame measures app. 8 by 8 in. --

-- I am guessing this dates to the period before Gio Ponti in perhaps the 1910s or 1920s period - any additional information would be most appreciated --
 
-- slight wear to the tile: a little dusty -- moderate wear to the frame: a few nicks and scratches and the backing paper seal is mostly gone --

We are currently listing a match to this piece --

-- "PLEASE NOTE: as an extra precaution, the Tile will be removed from the frame for shipping* --
