| Own a piece of American glass
history! The very first pieces of glass that Louis Comfort Tiffany
designed and produced were glass tiles used for trim on walls and around
fireplaces. These 3 inch square tiles are some of the earliest produced
because the don't have the Tiffany patent embossed on them. They are
in the shape of a flower also know as a rosette. It's hard to find
these tiles in excellent shape because when they were removed they
were often chipped along the edges. These ones are no exception, the
solid blue has a number of chips around the edges. The blue and white
slag tile is in better shape but has a crack within it. Regardless,
these tiles are nearly impossible to find on the open market.
